Common Use

The primary active ingredient in Cenforce is Sildenafil Citrate. This component influences the body's response to sexual stimulation. It works by promoting the relaxation of smooth muscles through the action of nitric oxide, a chemical naturally released during sexual arousal. This relaxation allows for increased blood flow to specific areas of the penis, leading to an erection.

Sildenafil Citrate is primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men and pulmonary arterial hypertension. It may also be prescribed for other conditions not listed here.

Dosage and Direction

The standard recommended dose is 50 mg, typically taken 30 minutes to 1 hour before sexual activity. Cenforce should not be taken more than once per day. Be aware that consuming a high-fat meal may delay the drug's effectiveness.

Avoid grapefruit or grapefruit juice while undergoing treatment with Sildenafil Citrate.
