Mechanism of Action of Tadacip 20 mg 

At the time of any sexual activity, the nerves present in your brain start sending signals to penis for stimulation. The brain impulses train the muscles present in the corpora cavernosa to completely relax. This ultimately allows the blood to flow in the open spaces. The corpora cavernosa lies in the male’s penile region that aids in keeping or maintaining an erection. When a man gets sexually aroused, the nerve terminals and blood vessels present in the penile region release nitric oxide (NO); this nitric oxide is a molecule that turns on a series of chemical reactions. This process eventually speeds up the flow of blood towards the penis and causes a spontaneous erection. Tadacip 20 mg comes in the category of PDE 5 inhibitors and the molecule named nitric oxide works more effectively on holding back these PDE 5 enzymes.
