Penegra (Sildenafil)

Viagra Information

Viagra (also known as Sildenafil) is widely known as the all-around impotence cure and has become synonymous with sexual pleasure. A wonder drug for those who suffer fromerectile dysfunction, it acts by relaxing the muscles of the genitalia, increasing blood flow to the penis, with the very satisfactory result of a normal erection. Studies have shown it to be a great solution for men who have erection problems. Almost 100% of the initial test subjects were able to get and maintain an erection long enough for normal sexual intercourse to occur.

Viagra Indications

Viagra is a drug famous for its strong effect in the treatment of erectile dysfunction in men. It acts by reducing the functionality of a certain enzyme (phosphodiesterases) and regularizing the erection procedure. For this effect to occur, it is recommended that the penis should also be stimulated in a sexual manner. Although there are other medicines in the same drug category as Viagra, this drug results in a much firmer erection and its results occur within ten to fifteen minutes after the medicine is taken.
