Cenforce 130 mg is a medication primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). The active ingredient in Cenforce is Sildenafil Citrate, a PDE5 inhibitor that works by affecting the blood vessels to improve erectile function.
Mechanism of Blood Vessel Dilation:
Sildenafil Citrate in Cenforce 130 mg works by inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). This enzyme normally breaks down cyclic GMP (cGMP), a molecule that helps relax the smooth muscles in blood vessel walls.
By inhibiting PDE5, Cenforce increases cGMP levels, which helps relax the smooth muscles and dilates the blood vessels in the penis, allowing for greater blood flow.
As a result, blood vessels in the penis widen (dilate) during sexual arousal, leading to an erection. This mechanism is essential for men who have difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection due to restricted blood flow.
Onset and Duration:
Cenforce 130 mg typically begins to work within 30 to 60 minutes after ingestion, with effects lasting for 4 to 6 hours, making it effective for sexual activity within that timeframe.
Cenforce 130 mg effectively dilates blood vessels by inhibiting PDE5, increasing blood flow to the penis and improving erectile function. It is important to use this medication under the guidance of a healthcare provider to ensure safety and effectiveness.
