Fildena works to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) by targeting the physiological process that underlies the condition. Its active ingredient, sildenafil citrate, belongs to a class of medications known as phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors.
When a man experiences sexual arousal, the release of nitric oxide (NO) in the erectile tissue of the penis stimulates the enzyme guanylate cyclase. This enzyme increases levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which relaxes smooth muscle cells and dilates blood vessels in the penis. As a result, blood flow to the penis increases, leading to an erection.

When a man experiences sexual arousal, the release of nitric oxide (NO) in the erectile tissue of the penis stimulates the enzyme guanylate cyclase. This enzyme increases levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which relaxes smooth muscle cells and dilates blood vessels in the penis. As a result, blood flow to the penis increases, leading to an erection.
In men with ED, there is an overactivity of the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), which breaks down cGMP, causing the erection to subside prematurely. Fildena inhibits the action of PDE5, allowing cGMP levels to remain elevated for longer periods. This prolonged presence of cGMP enhances the vasodilatory effects, promoting increased blood flow to the penis and facilitating the achievement and maintenance of an erection during sexual activity.
