Suhagra, manufactured by Cipla, contains Sildenafil Citrate. This medication works by increasing blood flow to the penis. Specifically, it inhibits an enzyme called phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5).
PDE5 Inhibition and Erection
PDE5 normally breaks down cGMP, a chemical messenger responsible for relaxing the muscles in the penis. By blocking PDE5, Suhagra allows cGMP levels to rise, leading to increased blood flow and facilitating an erection in response to sexual stimulation. It’s important to remember Suhagra doesn’t cause erections automatically; sexual stimulation is necessary.
Dosage and Considerations
Suhagra comes in various dosages. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose based on your individual needs and health. Always follow your doctor’s instructions carefully. Certain medications and health conditions may interact with Suhagra; discuss your medical history with your physician before use.
Side Effects
Common side effects include headache, flushing, and nasal congestion. More serious, though rare, side effects can occur. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience vision changes, chest pain, or prolonged erection (priapism). This information is not a substitute for professional medical advice.
