Description
Apcalis is a drug that is classified as a phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor. It is used to relax the blood vessels and muscles in the vessel walls in the male penis.
This improves the blood supply to the penis during sexual stimulation. Apcalis also improves the manufacture rate of the cGMP enzyme.
This enzyme also increases the rate of blood flow to the penis, leading to improved ability to obtain and maintain an erection.
