What is Megalis 20 mg Used For

Megalis 20 mg is used for the following purposes:

• Erectile dysfunction
• Pulmonary arterial hypertension
• Benign prostatic hyperplasia

In erectile dysfunction, it supports blood flow to help achieve and maintain an erection during sexual stimulation. In pulmonary arterial hypertension, it helps relax blood vessels in the lungs, allowing blood to flow more easily.

How Megalis 20 mg Works

Megalis 20 mg works by relaxing smooth muscles in blood vessel walls. This relaxation helps increase blood flow to specific areas of the body.

In erectile dysfunction, increased blood flow to the penile area supports a natural erection response during sexual stimulation.
In pulmonary arterial hypertension, relaxation of the pulmonary blood vessels helps reduce pulmonary pressure.
