Kamagra is a drug intended for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED), it contains the active ingredient sildenafil citrate. The manufacturer is the Indian pharmaceutical company Ajanta Pharma, founded in 1973. The active ingredient sildenafil was originally patented by Pfizer, which became famous for the famous Viagra brand.

- Kamagra (Ajanta Pharma)
- Sextreme (Shree Venkatesh )
- Fildena Fortune Health Care)
- Edgar (Sun Pharmaceutical)
- Penegra (Zydus Cadila)
The active substance Sildenafil belongs to a group of drugs called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). During sexual excitement, it relaxes the blood vessels of the smooth muscles in the penis. This will allow a greater flow of blood to the penis and the result is a perfect, healthy and painless erection. Sildenafil citrate was originally developed for the treatment of high blood pressure and certain heart diseases, but clinical tests have shown special effects of this substance, which included a long-lasting erection. In 1998, sildenafil citrate was officially approved for the treatment of impotence in the USA. Medicines containing the drug sildenafil are currently sold in doses of 25-120 mg in one pill.
