Malegra is an oral medication that contains sildenafil citrate, commonly prescribed for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in men. It works by supporting the body’s natural process of achieving an erection during sexual arousal. Malegra is designed to help men regain sexual confidence and improve performance by enabling a firmer and longer-lasting erection. It is part of a group of medicines known as phosphodiesterase type five inhibitors and is often used when psychological or physical factors interfere with erectile function.

Mechanism of Action
The active ingredient in Malegra, sildenafil citrate, acts by enhancing blood flow to the penis. During sexual stimulation, the body releases nitric oxide in the erectile tissue. This triggers the production of cyclic guanosine monophosphate, a chemical that helps relax and widen the blood vessels in the penis, allowing for increased blood flow and erection.

Sildenafil blocks the enzyme phosphodiesterase type five, which normally breaks down cyclic guanosine monophosphate. By inhibiting this breakdown, Malegra allows the erection to be sustained more effectively and for a longer period, provided there is sexual arousal.
