Overview
What is Sildenafil and How Does it Work?
Sildenafil is an effective erectile dysfunction treatment that helps men who struggle to achieve or maintain an erection during sexual intercourse.
Taken up to one hour before sex to increase blood flow to the penis, sildenafil tablets can help you achieve and maintain an erection. You should note that sildenafil tablets won't help you to get an erection unless you are stimulated first.
The active ingredient of Sildenafil – sildenafil citrate – is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor. This type of drug works by blocking the PDE5 enzyme, which helps your blood vessels relax and improves blood flow.
It is the widening of the blood vessels that increases blood flow to your penis, allowing you to achieve an erection when aroused. PDE5 is mainly found in the corpus cavernosum, which is one of the columns of tissue in the penis. PDE5 inhibitors such as sildenafil stop PDE5 from reversing the erection process.
Sildenafil also boosts nitric oxide, the naturally-produced chemical which helps your penis muscles to relax.
How Long Does Sildenafil Last
Sildenafil lasts for 4-6 hours. It is advised that for Sildenafil tablets to work properly, you will need to be excited and in a state of sexual arousal.

Sildenafil Reviews
Sildenafil reviews are generally positive, with most people finding that they have an erection shortly after taking the medicine. Sildenafil producers do note that not everyone will experience an erection with Sildenafil, and this is reflected in the reviews. However, about 70% of users report experiencing an erection, and some men note that they needed to try Sildenafil two or more times before noticing the positive impacts.
Side effects are reported as very uncommon when taking Sildenafil, but the most common reports are nausea, headaches and flushing. Most people who reported side effects said that they passed in an hour or two and that they didn’t need to speak to their doctor or seek medical attention.
