Fildena is a medication commonly used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. Its active ingredient is Sildenafil Citrate, which is the same compound found in Viagra. Fildena works by increasing blood flow to the penis, enabling men to achieve and maintain an erection when sexually aroused.
Here’s a more detailed overview:
What is Fildena?
Fildena is a prescription medication primarily used for treating erectile dysfunction (ED), a condition where men have difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection during sexual activity. It belongs to a class of drugs called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. Fildena helps improve erectile function by relaxing the blood vessels in the penis, allowing increased blood flow.
How Does Fildena Work?
Fildena works by inhibiting the action of the enzyme PDE5, which normally breaks down a substance called cGMP. cGMP is essential for relaxing the blood vessels in the penis and increasing blood flow during sexual stimulation. By inhibiting PDE5, Fildena helps maintain higher levels of cGMP, leading to an improved and longer-lasting erection.
Dosage and Administration
Fildena is available in different strengths, typically 25 mg, 50 mg, and 100 mg. The recommended starting dose for most men is 50 mg, taken about 30 minutes to one hour before sexual activity. The dosage can be adjusted based on individual response, with a maximum dose of 100 mg per day. It’s important not to exceed one dose per day and to follow the healthcare provider’s instructions closely.
