Uses of Duraga 100 tablet

Often known as impotence, ED causes an inability to attain and maintain an erection during sexual activity.
This medication relaxes penile muscles and induces an erection.
Sildenafil in this medicine is also effective against Pulmonary Hypertension.

How Duraga works
A sufficient blood supply to the penis is necessary for attaining a hard erection.
The Duraga 100 tablet relaxes penile muscles and enhances blood circulation.

Sildenafil in this medicine inhibits this activity and aids in the treatment of impotence.
