About Snovitra 60 mg

Snovitra 60 mg is the most well-known medicine for treating Impotence or Erectile Dysfunction (ED).

Erectile Dysfunction happens when a man can't keep an erection going long enough.

Vardenafil is the main ingredient in Snovitra 60 mg.

It makes the sexual activity more pleasurable and keeps your erection for longer.

It gives you a hard erection and the ability to maintain it during penetration.

Uses of Snovitra 60

Snovitra 60 mg helps men with ED or Impotence, which can happen at any point in their lives.

Vardenafil, the key ingredient of Snovitra 60 mg, functions by increasing blood flow to the penile region.

This increased blood flow helps men get hard erections for penetration.

How does Snovitra 60 mg work

Vardenafil is an inhibitor of Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). This PDE-5 suppressor prevents the PDE-5 enzyme from working.

This inhibition increases the Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (cGMP) level, which widens the Blood vessels. 

It enhances blood flow to the penis during the development of sexual desire.

This increased blood flow makes erections better for penetration.
