How does Silagra 100 mg work

Sildenafil Citrate is the active ingredient in Silagra 100 Mg. It belongs to a class of medications known as PDE 5 inhibitors or Phosphodiesterase Type 5 inhibitors. It improves blood circulation in the penis by blocking the action of the enzyme PDE 5. 

Enzyme PDE 5 is responsible for the arteries getting constricted, which does not allow the blood to flow easily into the penis. Therefore, it becomes difficult to achieve or maintain an erection. Sildenafil Citrate prevents PDE 5 from destroying Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (cGMP) and enables the contraction and dilation of blood vessels. It makes the blood flow easily in the penis veins and helps the penis to achieve and maintain an erection.
