Fildena 100 is a medication that is commonly used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. It works by increasing blood flow to the genitals, promoting the ability to achieve and maintain an erection. The key ingredient in Fildena 100 is sildenafil citrate, a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor.
When a man is sexually aroused, nitric oxide is released in the body which activates an enzyme called guanylate cyclase. This enzyme increases levels of a chemical called cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which relaxes the smooth muscles in the penis, allowing blood to flow in and fill the erectile tissues. PDE5 is an enzyme that breaks down cGMP, so by inhibiting PDE5, Fildena 100 helps to maintain high levels of cGMP, ensuring a sustained and firm erection.
It is important to note that Fildena 100 is not an aphrodisiac and will not cause an erection without sexual stimulation. It should also be taken as advised by a healthcare provider, as misuse can lead to potentially serious side effects.
