Fildena CT 100 is a medication that contains sildenafil citrate as its active ingredient. It is a chewable tablet form of sildenafil that is commonly used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), a condition where men have difficulty achieving or maintaining erections sufficient for sexual activity.
Fildena CT 100, like other medications containing sildenafil, works by inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). Here's how it assists in achieving a satisfying sexual experience:
Release of Nitric Oxide: When a man is sexually aroused, the body releases nitric oxide in the penile tissue. Nitric oxide triggers the production of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), a chemical messenger that causes the smooth muscles of the blood vessels in the penis to relax.
Enhanced Blood Flow: The relaxation of the smooth muscles allows the blood vessels to widen, increasing blood flow to the penis. This increased blood flow is necessary for achieving and maintaining an erection.
PDE5 Inhibition: Normally, an enzyme called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) breaks down cGMP, leading to a decrease in blood flow and the end of the erection. Sildenafil in Fildena CT 100 inhibits the action of PDE5, which helps to maintain higher levels of cGMP in the penis. This, in turn, prolongs the relaxation of blood vessels and allows for sustained blood flow, helping the man to achieve and maintain an erection.
Fildena CT 100, being a chewable tablet, is designed to provide a more convenient and faster onset of action compared to traditional tablet forms of sildenafil. It can be chewed and dissolved in the mouth, allowing the medication to enter the bloodstream more quickly.
It's important to note that Fildena CT 100 does not directly cause an erection on its own; sexual arousal is still necessary for the medication to work. Additionally, the medication does not address the underlying causes of erectile dysfunction. If there are underlying medical or psychological factors contributing to ED, those should also be addressed for long-term management.
