What is Sildigra 100 mg

Sildigra 100 mg helps to manage Erectile Dysfunction (ED) or male impotence in men or males assigned at birth (AMAB). It contains Sildenafil Citrate, belonging to the medication class of Phosphodiesterase Type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. 

Sildenafil improves blood circulation to the penis to help men achieve and maintain firmer erections. Cipla Ltd. manufactures and markets this ED medication. 

Uses of Sildigra 100 mg

Sildigra 100 mg tablets help with Erectile Dysfunction or male impotence in men. It contains Sildenafil, a PDE5 inhibitor that enhances penile blood circulation, which promotes healthy sexual function. This helps men to get firm and long-lasting erections. 

Sildigra is sometimes prescribed to treat Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH), a condition which enhances the blood pressure present in the arteries of the lungs. 

Working and benefits of Sildenafil Citrate

Sildigra, with Sildenafil Citrate as its active ingredient, blocks the PDE5 enzyme that breaks down cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). Since cGMP increases smooth muscle cells and blood inflow to the corpus cavernosum, this causes erections in men. 

When sexually stimulated, the body releases nitric oxide (NO) in the penis, which increases cGMP levels. As Sildenafil blocks this enzyme, cGMP levels significantly increase, allowing better circulation in the penile region. As a result, individuals can experience firmer and more long-lasting erections. 

It is important to note that Sildigra will only be effective when sexual stimulation occurs. It does not cause automatic erections. 

The benefits of Sildigra 100 mg tablets include: 

• Firm erections: Sildenafil allows men to get or maintain firm erections when sexually stimulated. 
• Quick onset of action: Individuals can observe results within 30 to 60 minutes of ingesting the ED pill. 
• Long-lasting erections: Effects of Sildigra tablets can last for at least 4 hours to enhance the intimate bond with loved ones.
