Erex 150 mg is a medication containing sildenafil citrate, a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor. This active ingredient is primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), a condition where men have difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual activity.
Sildenafil citrate works by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. It does this by inhibiting the PDE5 enzyme, which normally breaks down a substance called cyclic GMP.
When cGMP levels are elevated, blood vessels in the penis relax and widen, allowing for an influx of blood that leads to an erection. It’s worth noting that Erex 150 mg, being a higher dose than some other commonly prescribed options, might be used when lower doses are not effective, but should always be used under the guidance and prescription of a healthcare professional. Self-medication or using higher dosages than prescribed can lead to an increased risk of side effects.
