Vidalista 60 – Product Information
🧪 Active Ingredient:
- Tadalafil – 60 mg per tablet
Tadalafil is a PDE5 (phosphodiesterase type 5) inhibitor used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation.
💊 Uses:
- Erectile Dysfunction (ED): Helps men achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for sexual activity.
- Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): Sometimes prescribed off-label for symptoms like difficulty urinating.
- Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH): Lower doses of tadalafil are also used in treating PAH.
⚙️ How It Works:
Tadalafil inhibits PDE5, an enzyme that restricts blood flow. By blocking PDE5, Vidalista helps relax blood vessels in the penis, enhancing blood flow and allowing for a firmer, longer-lasting erection in response to sexual stimulation.
⏱️ Onset and Duration:
- Onset: 30–60 minutes before sexual activity
