Consult your doctor before using Cialis, especially if you have heart problems, high or low blood pressure, kidney disease, liver disease, stomach ulcers, bleeding disorders, or sickle cell anemia. Cialis can interact with other medications, including nitrates, so disclose all your current medications and supplements.
Common Side Effects
Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, indigestion, back pain, and muscle aches. These are usually mild and temporary. If they persist or worsen, seek medical advice. More serious, though rare, side effects include prolonged erection (priapism), sudden vision loss, or hearing loss. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these.
Precautions
Avoid grapefruit juice while taking Cialis, as it can increase the drug’s concentration in your bloodstream. Alcohol consumption may intensify side effects. Cialis is not intended for women or children. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully regarding dosage and frequency. Store Cialis in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and direct sunlight.
