Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction Treatment

My Indian Pharmacy

Sildenafil can treat erectile dysfunction (also known as sexual impotence). Sildenafil belongs to a group of medicines called phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (PDE5). These medications stop an enzyme called PDE5 inhibits (PDE5) from working too quickly. This enzyme is found in the penis.

Erectile dysfunction is when the penis does not expand or harden when sexual stimulation is applied. When a man is sexually stimulated, erectile dysfunction can occur. To produce an erection, his body will increase blood flow from the penis. Sildenafil is a control agent for the enzyme and can help maintain an erection after the penis has been touched. Sildenafil will not cause an erection when there isn’t any physical action on the penis, such as during sexual intercourse.

Sildenafil is also used to treat pulmonary arterial Hypertension (PAH) symptoms in both men and women. This is high blood pressure between your heart and your lungs. Hypertension in the lungs is when the heart has to work harder to pump enough blood into your lungs.

Generic Sildenafil relaxes blood vessels and activates the PDE5 enzyme in the lungs. This will increase blood flow to the lungs and reduce the heart’s workload. Only a doctor can prescribe the medicine.
