Cialis, like all medications, can cause side effects. These are usually mild and temporary. Common side effects include headache, flushing, stuffy or runny nose, muscle aches, back pain, and indigestion. These typically resolve on their own.
However, some side effects require immediate medical attention. Seek immediate help if you experience:
| Sudden vision loss | Complete or partial loss of sight in one or both eyes. |
| Hearing loss or ringing in the ears (tinnitus) | Difficulty hearing, sudden deafness, or a persistent ringing or buzzing sound in your ears. |
| Prolonged erection (priapism) | An erection lasting more than four hours. This is a medical emergency. |
| Chest pain | Discomfort or pressure in the chest, radiating to the arm, jaw, or back. |
| Severe allergic reaction | Hives, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing. |
Less common but still concerning side effects include dizziness, fainting, and changes in blood pressure. If you experience any unexpected or concerning side effects, contact your doctor or other healthcare provider immediately. They can assess your situation and advise you on the best course of action.
