Avanafil works by inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) in the smooth muscle cells of the penis. This inhibition increases levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which relaxes the smooth muscles and dilates blood vessels in the penis. Increased blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation helps to achieve and maintain an erection.
