Viagra relaxes muscles and increases blood flow to particular areas of the body.
Sildenafil under the name Viagra 50mg and 100mg is used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. Another brand of sildenafil is Revatio, which is used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension and improve exercise capacity in men and women. Do not take Viagra 100mg while also taking Revatio, unless your doctor tells you to.
Viagra 50mg may also be used for other purposes.
