What Is Viagra?
Viagra (sildenafil) is a widely recognised prescription medicine for erectile dysfunction (ED), a condition where men find it difficult to achieve or maintain an erection. The key ingredient in Viagra tablets is sildenafil citrate, which works by increasing blood flow to the penis, thus helping to achieve a firm and lasting erection when sexually aroused. It’s a safe and effective solution for many men experiencing ED, designed to improve sexual performance and confidence. Viagra is known for its quick action, usually taking effect within 30 to 60 minutes, and its effects can last for approximately 4 to 5 hours. It’s a prescription medication, ensuring that it’s used under medical guidance to address erectile dysfunction effectively and safely.
How does Viagra work
Viagra is a popular ED solution and treatment with a global reputation. Viagra tablets are manufactured by Pfizer and are the best-known brand for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). Viagra 100mg tablets have a strong effect in increasing blood flow to the penis by widening the blood vessels, which helps in achieving an erection. This increase in blood flow to the penis is caused by the active ingredient sildenafil citrate and normally results in a satisfactory erection being achieved.
It usually takes 30 to 60 minutes for Viagra tablets to work, and the effect lasts about 4 to 5 hours. This allows them to be taken discreetly before they are required.
