Cenforce 50

What is Cenforce 50?

Cenforce 50 mg is a prescription medication designed to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in adult men. It contains 50 milligrams of Sildenafil Citrate—an FDA-approved compound from the class of PDE5 inhibitors, known for restoring healthy blood flow to the penis.

When used with sexual arousal, Cenforce 50 helps men achieve and maintain a natural erection.

Manufactured by Centurion Laboratories, a GMP-certified Indian pharmaceutical company, this formulation offers a moderate starting dose ideal for first time users or men who experienced side effects with higher strengths like Cenforce 100 mg.

Composition of Cenforce 50

Each tablet includes:

• Active ingredient: Sildenafil Citrate 50 mg
• Supportive excipients: Microcrystalline cellulose, lactose monohydrate, croscarmellose sodium, hypromellose, FD&C Blue No. 2

These components work together to ensure consistent tablet performance, quick disintegration, and reliable absorption in the body.

Who Should Use Cenforce 50?

This dosage is best suited for adult males (18+) who are diagnosed with erectile dysfunction and are beginning ED therapy or prefer a lower strength formulation.

It is not suitable for women, children, or individuals without a prescription.

Medical Uses of Cenforce 50

Primary indication:

• Erectile Dysfunction (ED): Enhances erectile response by increasing blood supply to the penile tissue during arousal.

Additional therapeutic uses (only under medical supervision):

• Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)
• Raynaud’s phenomenon (off-label)
• Altitude sickness-related hypoxia (experimental)

How Does Cenforce 50 Work?

Sildenafil Citrate functions by inhibiting the PDE5 enzyme, which is responsible for restricting blood flow in the penis. When PDE5 is blocked, the smooth muscles of the penile arteries relax, allowing for increased blood circulation during sexual excitement.
