How Does Vigora 50 mg Work?
Vigora 50 mg contains Sildenafil Citrate, which inhibits the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). This enzyme breaks down cGMP, a chemical responsible for relaxing blood vessel walls and improving blood circulation in the penis.
By blocking PDE5, Sildenafil increases cGMP levels, causing the penile blood vessels to relax and expand. This allows stronger blood flow during sexual arousal, helping achieve and maintain a natural erection.
Important: Vigora works only when sexual stimulation is present.
