Duraga 50 mg Tablet

Duraga 50 mg Tablet is a prescription medicine that contains 50 mg of sildenafil citrate in each tablet. It belongs to a class of medicines called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors and is used to treat erectile dysfunction in adult men. Duraga 50 mg Tablet helps improve erectile response when there is sexual stimulation; it does not create an erection by itself. This product is supplied by Torque Pharmaceuticals as a tablet in a strip/box of 10 tablets.

How it works: Sildenafil in Duraga 50 mg Tablet relaxes the blood vessels in the penis by blocking PDE5, which helps increase blood flow during sexual stimulation. Because this is a standard oral tablet, it is taken by mouth and works best when there is natural sexual arousal.

Duraga 50 mg Tablet is the standard middle strength in the Duraga line, sitting below Duraga 100 mg Tablet. A doctor may choose Duraga 50 mg Tablet for men who need a moderate sildenafil dose based on how well they respond and how they tolerate treatment, especially if a lower strength is appropriate to start or if the 100 mg strength is not needed. The tablet form is swallowed whole and is not a fast-acting special formulation; onset still depends on sexual stimulation and individual response.
