Cenforce 100 mg is a widely used medication for treating erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. It contains 100 mg of sildenafil citrate, the same active ingredient found in Viagra, and helps improve the ability to achieve and maintain an erection during sexual activity.
What Is Cenforce 100?
Cenforce 100 is a generic version of Viagra, produced by Centurion Laboratories. It belongs to a class of medications called PDE5 inhibitors. These drugs work by enhancing blood flow to the penis, enabling stronger and longer-lasting erections when combined with sexual stimulation.
How Cenforce 100 Works
During sexual arousal, nitric oxide is released in the body, which increases the levels of cyclic GMP (cGMP). This causes the smooth muscles in the penis to relax, allowing more blood to flow in. Sildenafil citrate inhibits the enzyme PDE5, which breaks down cGMP. This inhibition allows cGMP to remain active longer, improving erection quality.
