How does Penegra 25 mg work?

To understand how the medicine works, it is important to understand that it will only help in erectile dysfunction cases caused by PDE type5. It is a hormone released by the body when the heart of a male is under some kind of risk. Now, due to various human activities like not performing enough physical activity, consuming only junk food, living a life full of depression and stress, etc. In these cases, the heart is at risk, and PDE type5 is released, which enters the blood vessels.

Here, it is going to attach and stop the release of cGMP, which is a vasodilator. Soon, the blood vessels contract and blood is unable to reach the penis in adequate amounts leading to a softer erection and erectile dysfunction. When a male consumes the medicine, Sildenafil citrate dissolves in the body and enters the blood vessels. It will avert all the actions taken by PDE type5, leading to a release of cGMP. It will start dilating the blood vessels again, which helps in gaining a harder erection when a person is sexually aroused.

The dose of Penegra 25 mg medicine that one requires to get the best erection is decided by the physician. They are going to check the erectile dysfunction levels in the patient’s body and medicine/ disease interactions. First of all, they ensure whether a person is safe to use the medicine or not through interactions. After that, the physician moves to check the issue levels based on which they prescribe the dose. It is generally one or two per day.
