Cenforce 200 is a medication commonly used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. It contains the active ingredient sildenafil citrate, which is also the main component of the well-known medication Viagra. Cenforce 200 is produced by Centurion Laboratories, a pharmaceutical company based in India.

Sildenafil citrate belongs to a class of drugs called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. It works by inhibiting the enzyme PDE5, which is responsible for the degradation of a substance called cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). By inhibiting PDE5, sildenafil allows cGMP to accumulate in the penile tissues, leading to increased blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. This enhanced blood flow helps to achieve and maintain an erection.

Cenforce 200, as the name suggests, contains 200 milligrams of sildenafil citrate per tablet. It is a higher dosage compared to the standard 25, 50, and 100 milligram strengths available in other sildenafil-based medications. The higher dosage is generally prescribed for individuals who do not respond well to lower strengths or have severe cases of erectile dysfunction.
