VIAGRA 200 MG

Every Viagra 200 mg tablet contains Sildenafil drug, which works by increasing blood circulation to different parts of the body, including the penis. Sildenafil is also a member of the phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor drug class. Other important members of this drug class are Tadalafil (Cialis), Vardenafil (Levitra), and Avanafil (Stendra). Apart from treating erectile dysfunction, Viagra 200 mg tablets can also be used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

Working of Viagra 200 mg in the System

When an individual suffers from ED (erectile dysfunction), an enzyme known as phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) is released in the patient’s body and does not allow blood to flow properly. This leads to constricted arteries present in the penis. Due to this effect, the muscle walls of smooth blood vessels are blocked. As a result, the blood doesn’t reach the penis freely and the erection does not occur.

Sildenafil citrate present in this Viagra 200 mg medicine relaxes the walls of the blood vessels and promotes blood flow more easily into the penis. As more and more blood flows due to this effect, the patient is able to achieve and maintain an erection for a longer duration.
