What Is Silditop Soft 100 Mg?
Silditop Soft 100 mg is a medication primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in adult men. It contains Sildenafil Citrate as its active ingredient, which is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor.
Uses
Silditop Soft 100 mg helps men achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for sexual activity by increasing blood flow to the penis. It works when there is sexual stimulation. It’s a “soft” formulation, often chewable or dissolvable, which can be convenient for those who have difficulty swallowing pills.
How it works
Sildenafil Citrate works by inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). This enzyme normally breaks down cGMP, a substance that causes smooth muscle relaxation and increased blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation.
By blocking PDE5, sildenafil allows cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) levels to increase, leading to improved blood flow and facilitating an erection.
How to take
It’s usually taken orally, approximately 15 to 30 minutes before anticipated sexual activity. It can be chewed or allowed to dissolve on the tongue without water.
The effects typically last for about 4 to 6 hours. It’s generally advised not to take more than one dose in 24 hours. Taking it with a high-fat meal may delay its effect.
