This condition occurs when a man is unable to obtain or maintain a firm erection, adequate for a satisfactory sexual activity. tadalafilo cinfa has demonstrated a significant improvement in the ability to obtain a lasting erection of the penis, adequate for sexual activity.

This medication contains the active ingredient tadalafilo, which belongs to a group of medications called phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors. After sexual stimulationtadalafiloacts by helping to relax the blood vessels of the penis, allowing blood to flow into the penis. The result is an improvement in erectile function.Tadalafilowill not be effective if you do not have erectile dysfunction.
