Malegra 100 mg Tablets

Malegra 100 mg Tablet is an oral medication containing the active molecule sildenafil citrate, which belongs to a class of drugs known as phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors. This medication is primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction, a condition where a man cannot achieve or maintain a firm erection suitable for sexual activity. It works by inhibiting the PDE5 enzyme, which normally breaks down cyclic guanosine monophosphate. By preventing this breakdown, sildenafil increases the levels of cGMP, leading to the relaxation of smooth muscles and increased blood flow into the penis upon sexual stimulation. It is important to note that sexual arousal is required for the drug to be effective. Common side effects include headache, facial flushing, indigestion, nasal congestion, and mild changes in vision. A critical precaution is that this drug must never be taken with nitrates used for chest pain, as the combination can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Patients with heart disease or liver problems should consult their doctor before use.
