Kamagra (Sildenafil), also referred to as Viagra Kamagra, is a generic brand of Sildenafil citrate (Viagra) used to treat male erectile dysfunction (ED). Manufactured by Ajanta Pharma (India) in a GMP certified facility, Kamagra is approved by the Indian FDA.

This Viagra alternative acts by inhibiting cyclic GMP-specific phosphodiesterase type 5, an enzyme that is responsible for regulating the blood flow through the penis tissue by delaying the degradation of cGMP.

Medical Uses for Kamagra

Kamagra was originally developed as an antihypertensive pill, which means its first indication was hypertension. However, today its main use is the treatment of erectile dysfunction.

Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction, the main condition treated with Kamagra, is defined as a persistent inability of achieving or maintaining a healthy erection for satisfactory sexual intercourse. Although not threatening, this condition influences drastically the sexual intimacy and self confidence, reducing the quality of life.

Statistics indicate up to 7% of men aged 18-29 are affected by this health problem, the prevalence of ED rising from men aged 50 to 59.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension

According to medical research, Kamagra can be used in treating pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) as it normalizes the blood pressure, improving gas exchange and increasing the exercise capacity as well.

PAH, quite a rare but deadly condition, manifests through an increased blood flow, affecting around 100,000 people along the US. Among the ailments associated with PAH are cirrhosis, congenital heart diseases, thyroid diseases, portal hypertension and sickle cell disease.

Dosage

Kamagra comes as little diamond-shaped pills colored in blue, available in single or four pills packs. The medicine is taken orally with liquids – preferably water.

The proper dosage of Kamagra for erectile dysfunctions is 50 mg per day, taken as needed by preferably one hour prior to sexual contact. Based on personal tolerance and effectiveness, this dose may be decreased to 25 mg per day or increased to a maximum of 100 mg per day. The Kamagra pill is rapidly absorbed and its maximum effect appears 30 to 120 minutes after intake.

No more than one dosage should be used daily, preferably with a glass of water. Kamagra overdose may lead to poisoning so a control center should be contacted immediately, in case the recommended dosage is exceeded.
