How does avanafil work?

4. Avanafil Works — What is avanafil used for?

This drug works by preventing the action of phosphodiesterase type 5. Erection is a product of a series of activities involving nervous system signals and release of chemical signals in the penis tissues. The chemical messengers in your penis include Cyclic GMP which causes the penis blood vessels to widen by relaxing the muscle layer in the blood vessel walls. Thus, allowing blood to flow into your sexual organ making it erect and become hard after the blood fills the penis blood vessels. The phosphodiesterase type 5 that is present in the penis breaks down the Cyclic GMP functioning, thus blocking the flow of more blood. That means the blood flow to your sexual organ will not be enough causing the penis to shrink. Avanafil (330784-47-9) stops the phosphodiesterase from acting, to stop any cyclic GMP interference, thus improving the blood flow into your penis. Therefore, being able to have an erection for a longer time and satisfy yourself and your partner.

The drug also enhances the proper functioning of chemical messengers that are responsible for facilitating erection. Avanafil will only be effective if the chemical messengers are present. Consequently, you have been sexually stimulated for the drug to help you maintain the erection. You should take the Avanafil dose thirty minutes before you intend to have sex for better results. In the United States of America, the Avanafil is sales under the brand Stendra. The product is just the same only that it has different brand names in different countries.
