Erecta Sildenafil 100 mg - 4 Tablets

Product Overview:

• Erecta (Sildenafil) is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in adult men or pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in adults and children, depending on the brand or formulation. This product contains 4 tablets.

Key Features:

• This product belongs to a group of medicines known as phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors and is designed for use only when sexual stimulation is present.

How it Works:

• Sildenafil works by blocking an enzyme in the body called PDE5, which helps relax certain blood vessels. For erectile dysfunction, it increases blood flow to the penis when aroused. This makes it easier to get and keep an erection. For pulmonary arterial hypertension, sildenafil relaxes the blood vessels in the lungs. This lowers blood pressure and reduces strain on the heart.
