Cialis, like any medication, can cause side effects. Understanding these potential issues helps you make informed decisions about your health.
Common side effects often include:
- Headache Facial flushing Nasal congestion Muscle aches Back pain Indigestion
These are usually mild and temporary. They typically resolve within a few hours. However, if they persist or worsen, contact your doctor immediately.
Less common, but more serious side effects require prompt medical attention:
- Sudden vision loss Sudden hearing loss Prolonged erection (priapism) Chest pain Irregular heartbeat
Priapism, a persistent erection lasting more than four hours, needs immediate medical help to avoid permanent damage. Seek emergency care if you experience any of these serious side effects.
Factors influencing side effects include dosage, individual health conditions, and interactions with other medications. Always inform your doctor about all medications you take, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements.
Before starting Cialis, discuss potential risks and benefits with your doctor. They can help you assess whether Cialis is the right choice for you and manage any side effects that may occur.
Consult your physician before using Cialis. Follow prescribed dosage instructions precisely. Report any concerning side effects immediately.
