German term

Ihren Mann stehen

German to English Bus/Financial Advertising / Public Relations Herbal potency pill blurb for US market.
"ES WIRKT SOFORT UND SIE HABEN DIE GARANTIE, 24 STUNDEN LANG IHREN MANN ZU STEHEN"

Here again the underlying idea seems simple enough, but not that obvious when translating into English.
'be the man you've always wanted to be/gives you the stamina you need"?

TIA for your input.

Keep him up/going for 24 hours

This is supposed to be a play on words so needs a bit of humour & sauciness
The original 'stand by your man' doesn't really translate into anything meaningful in English IMO. Need to be creative and check with client.
