Tadagra 20 mg

Description

What is Tadagra 20?

Tadagra 20mg is a prescription-based medication used to treat Erectile Dysfunction ( ED ) or impotence in men. 

Tadalafil is the active ingredient present in the medicine. 

Tadagra works by relaxing the blood flow to the penile area, which helps in getting or maintaining erections. 

The company that produces Tadagra 20 mg is Dharam Distributors.

Usage of Tadagra 20 (Tadalafil)

Tadalafil is a Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitor. Tadagra 20 is used to treat Erectile Dysfunction.

Paired with sexual stimulation, it helps men get and sustain erections by increasing blood flow to the penis.

The primary cause of the dysfunction is reduced blood flow to the penile region. Tadagra helps in boosting it.

Additionally, Tadalafil treats the symptoms of an enlarged prostate (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia-BPH). It helps alleviate BPH symptoms, such as frequent or urgent urination, a weak urine stream, and difficulty initiating pee flow.

Tadalafil relaxes the bladder and prostate’s smooth muscles.

Note: This drug does not protect against STDs (such as HIV, hepatitis B, gonorrhea, and syphilis).

How does Tadagra 20mg work?

The active element in Tadagra 20 is Tadalafil, which relaxes the muscles in the penile blood vessels.

Phosphodiesterase Type 5 (PDE5) is a naturally occurring enzyme in the penile region. 

When the production of this enzyme rises more than usual, the penis becomes flaccid. 

Tadalafil inhibits the production of this enzyme. 

It increases blood flow to the penis and improves Erectile Dysfunction.

Recommended Dosage of Tadagra 20

Typically, one daily dosage of Tadalafil is used. Follow all directions on the prescription medicine label. Never use this drug excessively, in smaller amounts, or for a lengthy period.

Tadagra 20 can be taken with or without meals.

A 20 mg dose of Tadagra should not be separated or crushed. It must be swallowed entirely.

To treat Erectile Dysfunction, take Tadagra just before sexual activity, but no more than once daily. 

When sexual excitement develops, Tadagra 20mg facilitates erection formation. 

Sexual stimulus is required; ingesting a pill alone will not produce an erection. Follow your doctor’s recommendations.

Overdose

In case of an overdose, you must contact your doctor immediately. 

Missed dose

If you miss a dose of 40 mg Tadagra, take it as soon as you recall. However, skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next dose. In no condition should you take more than the recommended dosage.
