What is Avana 100 mg?

Uses of the Drug
The 100 mg strength Avanafil tablets are mainly used to treat ED in men.
Erectile Dysfunction is the inability to get or maintain a penile erection during sexual activity.
It occurs due to decreased blood flow in the penile region of the body.
The reasons behind decreased blood flow may include physical disorders such as Benign Prostate Cancer, Diabetes, and Neuropathy, or psychological problems such as depression, anxiety, or stress.
Avana and Stendra tablets increase blood flow to the penis and help men achieve a firm erection during sexual intercourse.
