The way it works

Sildenafil works by potentiating the effect of nitric oxide released during sexual stimulation. It inhibits the PDE5 enzyme in penile tissue, which leads to relaxation of smooth muscle and increased blood flow into the corpora cavernosa. Sexual arousal is still required for the medicine to have an effect.
