Getgo 20 mg Tablet

Getgo 20 mg Tablet is a prescription medicine that contains 20 mg of tadalafil in each tablet. Tadalafil belongs to a class of medicines called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. It is used in men to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) and may also be prescribed for other doctor-directed uses involving blood flow.

How it works: Tadalafil in Getgo 20 mg Tablet relaxes smooth muscle and widens blood vessels, which increases blood flow to the penis when you are sexually stimulated. As a tablet, it is swallowed and absorbed through the digestive system, allowing the medicine to work from inside the body.

Getgo 20 mg Tablet is the higher-strength version compared with Getgo 10 mg Tablet, so it is generally used when a doctor feels a stronger dose is appropriate. Because it contains 20 mg of tadalafil per tablet, it may be chosen for patients who need a more robust response, but it is not meant for everyone and should only be used after a clinician has assessed the dose.
