How does Zenegra 100 work?
Zenegra 100 medicine’s main task is to block the actions of PDE type5 in order to help a person achieve a harder erection. PDE type5 is a hormone released by the body when a male adopts a bunch of bad habits. The main aim of the release of PDE type5 is to ensure the safety of the heart, but in the process, the blood vessels contract. Due to this, blood is unable to reach the penis leading to a softer erection.
When a male consumes the medicine, Sildenafil enters the blood vessels, leading to the blocking of all the activities performed by PDE type5. It will lead to a rise in the levels of cGMP, which is a vasodilator. Soon, the blood vessels dilate, and a person notices a harder erection when they are sexually aroused.
Dosage Requirements
The required dose of the medicine varies from person to person, and the final decision on the dose is made by the physician a person visits. They require information about the medical history of a person and the intensity of the erectile dysfunction issues. They will use the first information to ensure whether a person is safe to use the medicine or not. The latter information will help a physician decide whether a patient needs one or two doses of Zenegra 100mg per day. Ideally, it is one per day, taken half an hour before intercourse.
