What is Cenforce FM 100 mg

Cenforce FM 100 is a medicine used for the treatment of Erectile Dysfunction in men.

Sildenafil Citrate, the primary ingredient of Cenforce-FM, is a PDE 5 or Phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor, which works by relaxing the penile blood vessels. 

This medicine is FDA-approved and requires a prescription.

It is prescribed only to people diagnosed with Erectile Dysfunction.

Uses of Cenforce FM 100

Cenforce-FM is given to males who face erection issues. 

Erectile Dysfunction (impotence), is an inability of a man to get and maintain an erection. 

Numerous factors influence Erectile Dysfunction.

Sildenafil, the main component of Cenforce FM 100mg, is also prescribed to treat Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).

How does Cenforce FM work

Sildenafil Citrate is present in FM 100 tablets in a significant amount. 

This ingredient inhibits Phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE-5) enzyme. 

It prevents the PDE-5 enzyme from breaking down the cGMP (cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate). 

Increased cGMP levels relax the muscles in the penile area. 

This makes blood flow through the penile blood vessels easier.
