Posts Tagged ‘Cialis’

Cialis like Viagra and Levitra, belongs to a class of drugs known as PDE5 inhibitors and consists of the active ingredient tadalafil. This impotence treatment works by blocking the action of PDE5, a chemical that restricts the flow of blood to the penis and thus prevents it from achieving a satisfactory erection. Cialis helps in relaxing penile muscles and easing blood flow for complete erection.

What Is The Recommended Dosage?

Most doctors prescribe an initial dose of 10mg that must be taken an hour before intended sexual activity. Depending on your body’s reaction to the drug and the intensity of its effects, your doctor may increase or decrease your dosage. The maximum recommended dose of Cialis is 20mg.

How Should I Take Cialis?

Cialis and Levitra doses should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not try to change the dosage or stop taking the medication without consulting your doctor. Increasing the dose will not enhance the benefits but is likely to exacerbate the adverse effects. Food intake does not have an impact on the effects of Cialis.

Is It Suitable To Take Cialis Along With Other Medications?

Taking Cialis in conjunction with other erectile dysfunction (ED) medications or other drugs is not recommended in order to avoid potential drug interactions. These drugs include other ED drugs such as Viagra and Levitra; nitrate medications used in the treatment of chest pain or other forms of heart disease; as well as recreational drugs such as ‘poppers.’

Are There Any Side Effects Of Cialis?

Contact your doctor immediately if you experience adverse effects of Cialis use such as breathing difficulties, hives, swelling of the tongue, lips, throat or face; dizziness and nausea; numbness, as well as pain or tingling sensations in the neck, arms, chest or jaws.

In rare cases, Cialis can also cause sudden loss of hearing or vision; irregular heartbeat; chest pain or feelings of heaviness in the chest; seizures or convulsions; light-headedness or fainting as well as priapism (prolonged and painful erections that last for 4 hours or more). Get emergency medical help if you experience any of these symptoms.
