What is Tadyog-Plus Tablet used for?

Tadyog-Plus Tablet is primarily used in men to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence), which is the inability to achieve and maintain an erection suitable for sexual activity, and premature ejaculation, a condition where a man ejaculates sooner than desired during sexual intercourse. It can also help manage the symptoms of an enlarged prostate (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or BPH).

How does Tadyog-Plus Tablet work?

Tadyog-Plus Tablet contains two active ingredients: Tadalafil and Dapoxetine.

• Tadalafil works by relaxing the smooth muscles and widening the blood vessels in the penis, which increases blood flow upon sexual stimulation, helping to achieve and maintain an erection. It also helps relax muscles in the prostate and bladder to alleviate symptoms of BPH.
• Dapoxetine increases the level of serotonin in the nerves, which helps improve control over ejaculation and thereby increases the time taken to ejaculate.

What is the usual dosage for Tadyog-Plus Tablet?

Tadyog-Plus Tablet should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is available in various strengths, such as 10mg Tadalafil + 30mg Dapoxetine or 20mg Tadalafil + 60mg Dapoxetine. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose and duration based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Do not exceed the prescribed dose.

• Inform your doctor about all medications, vitamins, and herbal supplements you are taking, as certain HIV drugs, oral antifungal drugs, and some antibiotics can also interact with Tadalafil, potentially affecting its levels in the blood.
