Vigora 100 mg

How Vigora 100 mg Works

Vigora 100 mg belongs to the family of medications known as PDE 5 (Phosphodiesterase Type 5) inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the enzyme PDE 5 and increases blood flow to the penis. Erectile dysfunction causes a constriction in the arteries of the penis that hinders blood flow and makes it difficult for a man to achieve or sustain an erection. Sildenafil Citrate present in Vigora 100 mg enables blood circulation by blocking the effects of PDE 5. It also prevents cGMP or Cyclic guanosine monophosphate that is responsible for the contraction and dilation of blood vessels from getting destroyed. This allows the blood to flow easily to the penis. As more and more blood flows to the penis, the pressure is created that leads to an erection.

Uses

1. Erectile Dysfunction (ED) – also known as impotence, it makes a man unable to achieve or sustain an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse. It may be caused due to physical and psychological reasons.
