Active Drug Information

The active drug in Aurogra is sildenafil citrate, which is a scientifically proven ED drug that is categorized under the class of drugs known as PDE5 (phosphodiesterase-5) inhibitors. Other drugs that belong to the same class of therapeutic agents are tadalafil, vardenafil, and avanafil. Sildenafil is one of the most commonly prescribed medications for the ED treatment than other drugs. It was initially prescribed for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in adults.

Sildenafil citrate present in Aurogra looks after treating ED by boosting blood supply to the sexual organ. This increased blood supply to the male organ allows men to achieve an erection on sexual arousal. Sildenafil is also sold under the brand name Revatio for the treatment of PAH, which relaxes the smooth muscles and dilates the blood vessels in the lungs. Remember that sildenafil citrate does not cure ED or increase sexual desire.

Mechanism of Action

Aurogra, the generic sildenafil drug, is a selective PDE5 inhibitor, meaning it temporarily stops the secretion of an enzyme called PDE5. This allows the body to stop the degradation of a substance called cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (cGMP). With this type of enzyme-chemical interaction, the body releases a potent chemical known as nitric oxide on sexual stimulation.

Nitric oxide is a compound that relaxed and dilates the blood vessels in your body, including the penile organ, letting more blood to flow across the organ to cause an erection during sexual stimulation. This is the mechanism of action of Aurogra when it comes to making you achieve and sustain an erection. Please note that the medicine will not cause a spontaneous erection; you need to be sexually excited for the drug to act.
