Snovitra Soft 20mg helps manage symptoms of ED but does not permanently cure the condition.
Working / Mechanism of Action
Snovitra Soft 20mg works by enhancing the body’s natural erectile response through inhibition of the PDE5 enzyme.
Here is a simplified explanation of its biological action:
- Sexual stimulation triggers the release of nitric oxide (NO) in penile tissues.
- Nitric oxide activates the enzyme guanylate cyclase, increasing levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP).
- cGMP relaxes smooth muscle cells in the corpus cavernosum.
- Relaxed smooth muscle allows increased blood flow into penile arteries.
- The enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) normally breaks down cGMP.
- Vardenafil inhibits PDE5, preventing cGMP breakdown.
- Sustained cGMP levels help maintain improved blood flow, supporting erection during sexual arousal.
Without sexual stimulation, nitric oxide release does not occur, and the medication will not cause an erection.
