Uses of Cenforce Soft 100 mg 

Cenforce Soft is prescribed to treat Erectile Dysfunction.

Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is a sexual disorder in which men cannot get and sustain an erection. 

Also known as impotence, ED is caused due to many psychological and physical factors, like Depression, low libido, Diabetes, etc.

This Cenforce Soft 100 mg pill helps a man achieve and maintain an erection, thus treating ED.

How does Cenforce Soft 100 mg tablet work?

Cenforce Soft 100 mg contains Sildenafil Citrate, which belongs to the class of medicines known as Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors.

These widened blood vessels boost blood flow in the penis, which is required to attain a satisfactory erection. 

However, this medicine will not show its effect without sexual stimulation.
