Over-the-counter drugs for potency with a vegetable composition

The first one isPenigra- herbal medicine. In addition to guarana and zinc extract, it also includes extracts of Chinese schisandra, muira puana and saw palmetto.

The first of these raw materials is a vine originating in East Asia, which has been used in traditional medicine as an aphrodisiac for hundreds of years. It works by stimulating circulation and sensitizing neurons to stimuli. In turn, muira puana is called the Amazon bush of life. Its wood extract has been used by the Indians for centuries as a means of adding strength, soothing rheumatism and enhancing sexual sensations. The ingredients it contains dilate blood vessels and improve blood circulation and the sensitivity of erogenous zones. Clinical trials have shown the effectiveness of this raw material in the treatment of erectile dysfunction at the level of 50%.

Saw palmetto is an important ingredient of Penigra, which is also used in preparations reducing benign prostatic hyperplasia. The enlarged prostate in men not only causes problems with urination, but also hinders the blood supply to the cavernous bodies of the penis. The ingredients contained in saw palmetto inhibit the multiplication of epithelial and glandular cells in the prostate. In addition, they inhibit the enzyme that breaks down testosterone, consequently increasing its level in the blood. Interestingly, for this reason, it is also used to treat male pattern baldness.

Penigra should not be used for more than 10 weeks, and the first effects are noticeableafter several days.

Important

A dietary supplement is not a drug

Drugs for potency are subject to the Main Pharmaceutical Inspector - both at the stage of production and sale in pharmacies. To be allowed on the market, they must meet stringent quality standards, and their therapeutic effect is confirmed by clinical trials. Only certified raw materials, the quality of which is constantly monitored, can be used in the production of herbal medicines. A leaflet must be attached to the medicine, including about the method of use, contraindications and side effects.

Potency dietary supplements are considered by Polish law as food and are subject to the Chief Sanitary Inspector. Their placing on the market does not require a permit, only informing the GIS about this fact. Supplements do not need to be tested to confirm their effect, because they are intended to supplement a normal diet with vitamins, minerals or other substances with a nutritional effect. Supplements do not have to have an information leaflet, and the requirements for their production and raw materials used are not as restrictive as in the case of drugs.

Over-the-counter drugs for potency with sildenafil and its derivatives

The second erection drug, recently available in Poland without a prescription (in three preparations: MaxOn Active, Maxigra Go and Inventum) issildenafil . This substance belongs to the group of the so-called phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors. It is a group of compounds that protect cGMP, i.e. a substance that relaxes the muscles of the vessels that supply blood to the penis. The more cGMP, the faster and easier the cavernous bodies fill with blood, resulting in an erection. Vardenafil (Levitra), which was later invented, belongs to the same group as sildenafil. Currently, the drug that belongs to the second generation of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors - tadalafil (Cialis) is also available over the counter.

All over-the-counter medications with sildenafil facilitate erection, but are not aphrodisiacs. To get an erection, you need a sexual stimulus that will trigger a natural mechanism.

Sildenafil starts working after 25 minutes and the effect lasts up to 4 hours. Its effectiveness has been confirmed in all groups of patients with erectile dysfunction (patients with diabetes, depression, spinal cord injuries, kidney failure or prostate surgery).

Sildenafil's action is not limited to inhibiting phosphodiesterase type 5. Studies have shown that it also inhibits type 6 of this enzyme, which is found in the retina of the eye. This is manifested by a blue glow and deterioration of color recognition in men who use it.Other side effects include headache, hot flush and stuffy nose. These symptoms disappear with prolonged use of the drug. The drug should not be combined with alcohol, and a high-fat diet reduces its effect by 30%.

Over-the-counter drugs for potency - contraindications

Drugs with phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors must not be combined with other preparations that release nitric oxide (e.g. nitroglycerin). They should not be taken by men with unstable ischemic heart disease or with unregulated blood pressure or ventricular arrhythmias. This does not mean, however, that they are condemned to erectile dysfunction - if the doctor manages to regulate their condition with the use of appropriate drugs, the use of this type of preparations is acceptable. Thanks to this, you can take sildenafil even two weeks after a heart attack.
