Always follow your doctor’s instructions. Dosage varies depending on individual needs and health conditions.
Viagra (Sildenafil):
- Usual Starting Dose: 50 mg taken as needed, approximately one hour before sexual activity. Dosage Range: Can be adjusted by your doctor to 25 mg or 100 mg, depending on response and tolerance. Maximum Daily Dose: 100 mg. Administration: Take with a glass of water. Avoid high-fat meals, as this may delay absorption.
Cialis (Tadalafil):
- Usual Starting Dose: 10 mg taken as needed, approximately 30 minutes before sexual activity. Dosage Range: Your doctor may adjust the dose to 2.5 mg or 20 mg, depending on your response. Daily Dosage Option: A low-dose (2.5 mg or 5 mg) can be taken daily for continuous effect, rather than as-needed. Administration: Take with or without food. The effect of food on absorption is less pronounced than with Viagra.
Important Considerations:
These medications are not suitable for everyone. Discuss your medical history with your doctor before use. Side effects are possible.

Do not take Viagra or Cialis with nitrates or other medications that lower blood pressure, as this can be dangerous. Alcohol consumption can affect the effectiveness of these medications and increase the risk of side effects. Grapefruit juice can interact with these medications, potentially affecting their effectiveness and increasing side effects. Avoid consumption.
