Understanding Novo Sildenafil’s Mechanism of Action

Novo Sildenafil, like other PDE5 inhibitors, works by selectively blocking the phosphodiesterase type 5 enzyme. This enzyme normally breaks down cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), a crucial molecule for achieving and maintaining an erection. By inhibiting PDE5, Novo Sildenafil allows cGMP levels to rise. Increased cGMP levels relax the smooth muscles in the blood vessels of the penis, increasing blood flow.

Increased Blood Flow and Erection

This increased blood flow engorges the penis’s erectile tissues, resulting in an erection. The effect is only triggered by sexual stimulation; Novo Sildenafil doesn’t directly cause erections. It facilitates the process by enhancing the body’s natural response to sexual stimulation. The duration of action varies depending on individual factors and dosage.

Important Considerations

Consult your doctor before using Novo Sildenafil, particularly if you have heart conditions, high or low blood pressure, or other pre-existing health issues. They can assess your suitability and advise on appropriate dosage and potential side effects. The drug interacts with certain medications; inform your doctor of all medications you are taking. Understanding these interactions is key to safe and effective use.
