Active ingredients

The drug EMBAGRA contains one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API):

1	Sildenafil UNII BW9B0ZE037 - SILDENAFIL CITRATE
	Sildenafil is a potent and selective inhibitor of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), the enzyme that is responsible for degradation of cGMP. Apart from the presence of this enzyme in the corpus cavernosum of the penis, PDE5 is also present in the pulmonary vasculature. Sildenafil, therefore, increases cGMP within pulmonary vascular smooth muscle cells resulting in relaxation.
