Sildenafil
Sildenafil citrate 25/50/100mg
Not everyone knows what Sildenafil is, but there are very few people out there that haven’t heard of Viagra, the first erectile dysfunction medication that has ever been approved by the FDA. Well, Sildenafil is the generic name for Viagra, meaning that Viagra is just the name under which Sildenafil is sold in the USA, UK and other western countries.
Sildenafil was approved for use in patients with ED in 1998, which made it the first erectile dysfunction medication that was found safe enough and effective enough to earn the FDA approval which is something all medications need to earn if they are to be introduced onto the market and sold. Sildenafil, or Sildenafil citrate to be more precise, is also the medication that has started a whole new class of drugs, called PDE5 inhibitors. Since 1998, two other PDE5 inhibitors have been introduced onto the market under the names vardenafil and tadalafil, while you most probably know them as Levitra and Cialis respectively.
The PDE5 inhibitors as a class, including Sildenafil are used to help men with erectile dysfunction achieve erections. The way in which Sildenafil citrate does this is quite simple actually. In most cases, namely, ED is caused by overactive PDE5, an enzyme which is responsible for lowering the levels of a chemical known as cGMP which relaxes the smooth muscles in the blood vessels that lead the blood into the penis. As Sildenafil inhibits this enzyme, cGMP is allowed to work uninterrupted and lead to a healthy and lasting erection.
The benefits of this are numerable. Namely, erectile dysfunction, while physiologically mostly harmless, can produce very serious psychological issues for the men suffering from it. It can lead to anxiety or even depression in men who are unable to relax and have normal interaction with their partners in fear of ED affecting their performance. Once men start taking Tadalafil, the psychological problems stemming from their condition start to wane away. In as little as a few days, they forget all about their ED problems and start leading a healthy and a very active sex life.
It would also be a good idea to compare Sildenafil to natural products that are being sold as ED remedies. Namely, many people who wish to buy Sildenafil wonder if they would be better off with natural supplements that are advertised as doing the same thing, only with natural ingredients and without any side effects or dangers to the patient. The simple fact is that only because these natural products have natural ingredients and that they cannot produce any side effects (or are not supposed to produce any side effects) does not make them superior. These products have not undergone any objective and unbiased clinical trials and all of the data that you are presented as objective is in fact given to you by the manufacturer, directly or indirectly. These natural products do not need to pass any approval processes and their production is not monitored very closely, if at all.
In conclusion, the best way to deal with erectile dysfunction is to buy Sildenafil, a medication that is proven to be effective and safe and a medication that has started a revolution for people suffering from ED.
