About Actigra 100 mg
Actigra 100 mg is one of the most common medicines to treat Erectile Dysfunction (ED).
It is a condition in which a man can't get or keep a hard erection in the penile area that is good enough for sexual activity.
This happens when there is less blood flow because of a physical injury, a medical condition, or a psychological issue such as anxiety, depression, stress, etc.
Sildenafil is the active ingredient in Actigra 100 mg.
It widens the blood vessels to make your erection last longer, which increases blood flow to the penile area.
It makes sexual activity more satisfying and keeps you from losing your erection when you're most excited.
Uses of Actigra 100 mg
Actigra 100 mg helps in the treatment of ED or impotence in men.
The active ingredient of Actigra 100, Sildenafil, increases the blood flow to the penis to maintain an erection during sexual intercourse.
Through this process, a man can get or keep an erection easily.
How does Actigra 100 mg work
Sildenafil, the main ingredient of Actigra, inhibits the effects of Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5).
It helps relax the blood vessels in the penile region, which lets more blood flow to the penis when stimulated sexually.
Actigra can aid in achieving an erection, but you must be sexually stimulated for it to be effective.
This helps you get and keep a hard, erect penis that's good for sexual activity.
