Always follow your doctor’s instructions. The recommended starting dose is 10 mg, taken as needed, at least 30 minutes before sexual activity.
Dosage adjustments may be necessary depending on individual response and tolerance. Your doctor might increase the dose to 20 mg or decrease it to 5 mg. Never exceed the maximum recommended dose of 20 mg per day.
- Daily Use: A lower dose (2.5 mg or 5 mg) may be prescribed for daily use. This allows for more spontaneous sexual activity. As-Needed Use: A higher dose (10 mg or 20 mg) is usually taken only when needed, closer to sexual activity.
Cialis is taken orally with or without food. However, food might slightly delay the onset of action. Avoid grapefruit and grapefruit juice while taking Cialis, as they can increase its concentration in your body.
Here’s what you need to know about administration:
Take the tablet whole. Don’t crush, chew, or break it. Drink plenty of water with the tablet. Take Cialis only as prescribed by your doctor. Do not self-adjust the dosage. Consult your doctor if you experience side effects.
