Vegro 50 mg (Sildenafil Citrate)

What is Vegro 50 mg Tablet?

Vegro 50 mg is a generic medication that contains Sildenafil Citrate as an active ingredient. It is a type of medication classified as a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor that is mainly used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in males. Vegro is just basically a generic version of the brand Viagra, so from a treatment standpoint, it provides the same functionality as a brand-name option at a far cheaper price.

Vegro 50 mg works by increasing blood flow to regions of the body where the blood flow occurs, and during sexual arousal, it leads to the penis. The way Sildenafil works is through something known as a PDE5 inhibitor, which stops an enzyme known as PDE5, allowing for the relaxation of certain blood vessels, which allows for increased blood flow and better erectile ability.

Primary Uses of Vegro 50 mg

Main Indications:

Erectile Dysfunction (ED): The main indication is for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in adult males

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH): In certain situations, sildenafil is used to treat high blood pressure in the lung arteries

Performance Enhancement: Helps men form and maintain an erection sufficient for a sexual act.

Scope of Treatment:

Vegro 50 mg results in men having difficulty personally achieving or maintaining an erection of a hard enough quality to engage in sexual intercourse. It does not cure erectile dysfunction nor does it increase sexual desire, but it allows physiological bodily processes to occur to achieve an erection from sexual stimulation when it occurs.

How Vegro 50 mg Treats Erectile Dysfunction

Biochemical Process:

• 1. PDE5 Inhibition: Sildenafil inhibits the PDE5 enzyme that normally breaks down cGMP (cyclic guanosine monophosphate)

• 2. Vasodilation: This causes greater increases in cGMP, and smooth muscle relaxation in blood vessels supplying blood to the penis.

• 3. Increased Blood Flow: The relaxed blood vessels allow for much better flow of blood to penis during sexual arousal.

Physiological Timeline:

The medication does not create an automatic erection, but it works with the natural response to sexual stimulation. If you take a dose of sildenafil on its own, there will be no erection, meaning that sexual arousal still needs to be there for the action of the drug to take effect.
