Cenforce 150 mg pills are primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. Erectile dysfunction is a condition characterized by the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance.

The active ingredient in Cenforce 150mg is sildenafil citrate, which belongs to a class of medications known as phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. These drugs work by inhibiting the action of the enzyme PDE5, which is responsible for breaking down a substance called cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). cGMP is crucial for relaxing the smooth muscles in the blood vessels of the penis, allowing for increased blood flow and thus facilitating an erection.
