How It Works

Tadaga 20 mg contains Tadalafil as its main active ingredient, classified as a PDE5 inhibitor. PDE5, or phosphodiesterase type 5, is an enzyme that restricts blood flow to the penis by tightening blood vessels. This restriction can make it difficult to achieve or maintain an erection.

Tadaga 20 mg works by relaxing the smooth muscles in the blood vessel walls within the penis. This relaxation allows for increased blood flow, making it easier to get and sustain an erection when sexually aroused. By blocking the effects of PDE5, Tadalafil helps improve erectile function.

Uses

Tadaga 20 Mg is used for the treatment of the following conditions: 

• Erectile Dysfunction: A condition in which the man is unable to get or keep an erection firm enough to get involved in sexual intercourse. 
• Benign Prostate Hyperplasia: An age-related condition in which the prostate gland gets bigger, causing difficulties in urination. 

Dosage

The effects of medicine vary from person to person because of different body composition, mass, etc. To get the best advice and directions possible, visit your doctor. Tadaga 20 Mg should not be taken more than once in 24 hours. The pill takes around 30-60 minutes to show its effects. The erection is known to last for around 36 hours. 

Missed dose

The chances of missing a dose are less because the medicine is usually taken when required for Erectile Dysfunction. But if you are using the medicine regularly for BPH and PAH, then take the missed dose as soon as you remember it. Do not take the missed dose if the next dose is coming shortly. Taking two doses at the same time can lead to overdose and severe side effects.
