Fildena 150mg

Fildena 150mg is a prescription medicine used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in adult men. Erectile dysfunction is a condition where a man cannot get or keep an erection firm enough for sexual activity.

Fildena 150mg contains sildenafil citrate, a medicine that increases blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. This higher-strength dose is usually prescribed for men who do not get enough benefit from lower doses such as 50mg or 100mg.

⚠️ Fildena 150mg is a high-strength dose and should be used only under medical supervision.

What Is Sildenafil Citrate?

Sildenafil citrate belongs to a group of medicines called phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors. These medicines help relax blood vessels and improve blood flow.

In men with ED, sildenafil helps increase blood flow to the penis when a man is sexually aroused. This makes it easier to get and maintain an erection.

Sildenafil usually starts working within 30 to 60 minutes, and its effects may last 4 to 6 hours.

Benefits of Fildena 150mg

Fildena 150mg may help men who need a stronger dose by:

• Improving blood flow to the penis

• Helping achieve firmer erections

• Supporting longer-lasting erections

• Improving sexual confidence and satisfaction

When used correctly, it can significantly improve sexual performance and quality of life.

How Does Fildena 150mg Work?

During sexual stimulation, the body releases nitric oxide in the penis. This triggers the production of a chemical called cGMP, which relaxes smooth muscles and allows blood to flow in.

Fildena 150mg works by:

• Blocking the PDE-5 enzyme

• Preventing cGMP from breaking down too quickly

• Keeping blood vessels relaxed longer

• Supporting a strong erection

⚠️ Sexual stimulation is required. The tablet will not work on its own.
