Cialis®is a widely used prescription medication for treating erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. This ED treatment is designed to improve sexual performance and enhance overall sexual satisfaction for those who suffer from ED. Cialis works by increasing blood flow to the penis, which allows for a harder and longer-lasting erection. It can be taken with or without food, and is typically prescribed in the form of tablets.
Cialis, also known by its generic name tadalafil, is a member of the tadalafil class of medications. This drug is primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. It works by relaxing the blood vessels in the penis, allowing for increased blood flow and facilitating an erection. It can also be used for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), which is a condition in which blood vessels narrow or block the flow of blood to the lungs. Cialis is typically prescribed in the form of a single dose of 2.5mg or 5mg tablets. The dose is based on your individual response and response to the medication.
Cialis, also known by its generic name tadalafil, belongs to a class of medications called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. It works by inhibiting the action of PDE-5, an enzyme found in the smooth muscle cells lining the blood vessels in the penis, leading to increased blood flow. By reducing PDE-5 levels, Cialis helps relax the blood vessels, allowing for improved erectile function. It is important to note that Cialis should only be taken under the guidance and prescription of a healthcare provider, as it can have serious side effects.
Cialis should be taken orally, approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour before sexual activity. The effects of Cialis can last up to 36 hours, although this can vary based on factors such as individual response and reaction to the medication. It is important to complete the full course of Cialis as prescribed by a healthcare provider, even if symptoms improve, to ensure that the medication remains effective and safe for continued use. Cialis can be taken with or without food, but it is recommended to take it at a consistent daily dosage.
While Cialis can be an effective treatment for ED, it is important to be aware of the potential side effects and communicate any concerns to your healthcare provider. In the event of a negative reaction to Cialis, it is important to stop the medication and consult with your healthcare provider immediately.

It is important to note that Generic Cialis is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). As a result, some individuals may not respond to Generic Cialis.
Common side effects of Generic Cialis include headache, dizziness, facial flushing, and indigestion.
Generic Cialis is contraindicated in patients with a history of heart problems, stroke, or blood pressure issues.
Generic Cialis may cause erectile dysfunction by inhibiting an enzyme called phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5).
This enzyme is responsible for breakdown of cGMP. cGMP causes the smooth muscles of blood vessels to relax. cGMP is needed to maintain blood vessels in healthy tissue. It is essential that the body is aware of the increased cGMP levels, which may lead to erection problems.
The use of Generic Cialis may cause low blood pressure, hypotension (low blood pressure in the blood vessels), and other symptoms. If these symptoms persist, they should be promptly reported to a healthcare provider.
Common side effects of Generic Cialis include headache, flushing, and indigestion.
Generic Cialis may also cause a reduction in the blood pressure of some patients. If you experience a sudden decrease or loss of pressure in one or both legs, you should contact your healthcare provider right away.
Generic Cialis should not be taken with nitrates, as they are intended to relax blood vessels. Additionally, some recreational drugs contain nitrates, which can lead to a dangerous drop in blood pressure.
The use of Generic Cialis may cause a decrease in the blood pressure of some patients, which is not advisable.
Generic Cialis may also cause an increase in the frequency of heart attacks or strokes in some patients. If you experience chest pain, shortness of breath, or swelling of the ankles or legs, call your doctor right away.
Generic Cialis may also cause low blood pressure in some patients, which is not advisable.

Individuals who have a history of priapism should not use Generic Cialis as it can lead to a dangerous drop in blood pressure.
1.Nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate): Cialis and nitrates both lower blood pressure. Taking them together can cause a significant and potentially life-threatening drop in blood pressure (hypotension), leading to dizziness, fainting, or even heart attack or stroke. It is contraindicated to use Cialis with nitrates or recreational "poppers" (amyl nitrites).
2.Alpha-blockers (e.g., prazosin, terazosin, tamsulosin): Both Cialis and alpha-blockers relax blood vessels, which can lead to excessive blood pressure reduction when used together. This may result in dizziness, fainting, or orthostatic hypotension (a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing). If needed, your doctor may adjust the dosage or recommend spacing the medications.
3.Other antihypertensive drugs (e.g., atenolol, propranolol, enalapril, lisinopril): Cialis can enhance the blood-pressure-lowering effects of these medications. While this interaction is usually less severe than with nitrates or alpha-blockers, it can still cause dizziness or fainting in sensitive individuals. Close monitoring of blood pressure is recommended.

Whether you can take Tadalafil at the same time as your other medications will depend on which medications you are taking.
You are required to complete a short medical consultation questionnaire that asks for any medications that you are prescribed from your GP and will indicate the medications that can’t be taken alongside Tadalafil.
There are several medicines which should not be taken concurrently with Tadalafil. Medicines which can have potentially serious interactions with Tadalafil include :-
• Any alpha-blocker medicines e.g. doxazosin (Cardura), alfuzosin (Xatral), tamsulosin, terazosin, or Flomax, that you can buy in the pharmacy. (These medicines may be used to treat prostate problems or high blood pressure).
• Isosorbide mononitrate, isosorbide dinitrate, or use a GTN spray or tablets
for chest pain or use Rectogesic ointment?
• Nicorandil (Ikorel), used to treat angina
• Cimetidine, used to treat stomach or duodenal (peptic) ulcers
• Theophylline, used to treat asthma
• Antibiotics:- Clarithromycin, Erythromycin and Telithromycin
• Anti-fungals such as itraconazole and ketoconazole
• Seizure medication:- carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin and primidone
