Malegra Oral Jelly 100 mg works by utilizing its active ingredient, sildenafil citrate, to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). It enhances blood flow to the penis, enabling men to achieve and maintain a firm erection during sexual activity. Its unique jelly formulation allows for faster absorption, providing quicker results.
Mechanism of Action
Inhibition of PDE5 Enzyme
Sildenafil blocks the action of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), an enzyme responsible for breaking down cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). CGMP is a molecule essential for relaxing smooth muscles and increasing blood flow in the penis. By inhibiting PDE5, sildenafil prevents the breakdown of cGMP, allowing it to accumulate and exert its effects.
Vasodilation
The increased levels of cGMP relax the smooth muscle cells in the walls of blood vessels in the penis. This relaxation, known as vasodilation, widens the blood vessels, improving blood flow to the penis.
Improved Blood Flow
During sexual arousal, this enhanced blood flow fills the corpora cavernosa, the spongy tissues of the penis, leading to an erection.
Erection during Sexual Stimulation
Malegra Oral Jelly supports the natural erectile process but requires sexual stimulation to be effective. It does not cause an automatic erection.
How the Jelly Formulation Enhances Effectiveness
Faster Absorption
The Malegra oral jelly formulation dissolves quickly in the mouth and bypasses parts of the digestive system. It allows sildenafil to enter the bloodstream more rapidly, resulting in effects within 15-30 minutes.
Avoidance of First-Pass Metabolism
Since the body absorbs a portion of the drug directly through the oral mucosa, the liver metabolizes it less, enhancing its bioavailability.
User-Friendly Format
The gel form is simple to consume, especially for individuals who have difficulty swallowing pills. While the medication improves the ability to achieve and maintain an erection, it does not cause a continuous erection. Erections occur only with sexual arousal.
How It Supports Erectile Function
