Cialis, containing tadalafil, primarily treats erectile dysfunction (ED) by increasing blood flow to the penis. This allows for firmer, longer-lasting erections sufficient for satisfactory sexual activity.
Beyond ED, Cialis also treats benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition causing urinary problems due to an enlarged prostate. Tadalafil relaxes prostate muscles, improving urine flow and reducing symptoms like frequent urination.
The medication’s duration of action is a key differentiator. Unlike some ED medications, Cialis’s effects can last up to 36 hours, allowing for spontaneity.
Dosage varies depending on individual needs and medical history. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose for you. It’s crucial to follow their prescribed regimen precisely.
Potential side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and muscle aches. These are usually mild and temporary. Serious side effects are rare but require immediate medical attention.
| Erectile Dysfunction | Increased blood flow to the penis | Up to 36 hours |
| Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) | Relaxation of prostate muscles | Up to 36 hours |
Consult your physician before using Cialis, especially if you have heart problems, low blood pressure, or take other medications. They can assess your suitability and guide you on safe usage.
