What is Penegra 25 mg
Penegra 25 mg contains Sildenafil Citrate as an active ingredient.
This medicine can be used to treat Erectile Dysfunction or impotence.
Impotence is the inability of a male to achieve and sustain an erection.
This medication facilitates erections in response to sexual stimulation by increasing blood flow to the penis.
Zydus Lifesciences manufacture Penegra tablets.
Uses of Penegra 25
If you have Erectile Dysfunction, your doctor may prescribe Penegra.
Impotence is characterized by an inability to get or retain an erection.
Increasing blood flow to the penile area helps a male keep his erection for longer.
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) can also be treated with other medications containing Sildenafil.
How Penegra works
These Sildenafil pills have been shown to suppress the action of Phosphodiesterase Type 5 (PDE5).
Inhibiting PDE5 promotes cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (cGMP) production, which relaxes penile smooth muscle.
When these smooth muscles are relaxed, more blood can travel to the sexual organs, producing a firm erection.
It's crucial to keep in mind that erections can't happen without sexual stimulation.
Dosage
You must take Penegra 25mg precisely as directed by your healthcare provider.
No one under 18 or a female should use this medicine. It is safe for use by adult males with impotence.
For ladies, there's Lovegra, the generic Viagra equivalent.
