Detailed Information
How it works
Viagra may help treat erectile dysfunction by enhancing blood flow to the penis during sexual arousal.
It works by inhibiting phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), which allows blood vessels to relax and improve circulation in specific areas of the body, including the penis.
This mechanism supports a natural erection response when sexual stimulation occurs.
Clinical applications
According to Drugs.com, Viagra is prescribed to adult men with erectile dysfunction, a condition characterized by difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection.
It is not intended for use by women or children and should only be used under the supervision of a healthcare provider.
Safety and Effectiveness
Safety profile
Viagra is generally well tolerated, but some users may experience side effects such as headaches, flushing, nasal congestion, or visual changes.
According to the Israeli Ministry of Health registration, more serious risks can include low blood pressure, heart-related symptoms, or priapism (prolonged erection), especially if taken with nitrates or certain medications.
