Cenforce D 160 mg contains sildenafil citrate 100 mg and dapoxetine 60 mg, and is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), which is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection.

Cenforce D 160 mg belongs to the PDE-5 inhibitor class. It works by blocking the PDE-5 enzyme in men who have difficulty maintaining an erection during sexual activity. This action helps release nitric oxide (NO) from blood vessels, improving blood flow to the penis, resulting in a stronger erection and enhanced satisfaction during intimacy.

Dapoxetine, the other ingredient, increases serotonin levels—a neurotransmitter that helps regulate nerve signals involved in ejaculation. By boosting serotonin activity, dapoxetine helps delay ejaculation and improve control over it. Originally, dapoxetine was developed as an antidepressant.
