How Viagra Treats ED

Erectile dysfunction, which is also called impotence, is a condition where a man fails to keep an erection for a longer duration which is required for sexual activity. To treat erectile dysfunction a prescription called Viagra was introduced in the market by Pfizer in March 1998.

Viagra works by increasing the blood flow into the erectile organ and it helps a man respond to sexual stimulation, allowing him to lead a normal life. Viagra helps the blood vessels in the erectile organ to relax which results in proper blood flow and an enhanced erection. Erectile dysfunction (impotence) can be treated at any age with the use of Viagra.

Viagra which is also known as sildenafil helps in delaying the enzymes called phosphodiesterase from working too fast. By managing control over phosphodiesterase it helps in maintaining the erection for the penis which is generated only after being sexually stimulated.

In older men, the cause of erectile dysfunction is usually a disease, injury or even side effects of a drug. The chance of erectile dysfunction generally increases with age.
