Cialis comes in various dosages, typically ranging from 2.5mg to 20mg. Your doctor determines the right dose based on your individual needs and health condition. Start with the lowest effective dose and adjust as needed under medical supervision. Never adjust your dosage without consulting your physician.
Common Side Effects
Many men experience mild side effects. These commonly include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, indigestion, and back pain. These usually subside within a few hours. More serious side effects are rare but require immediate medical attention. These can include sudden vision loss, prolonged erection (priapism), or hearing loss.
Less Common but Serious Side Effects
Seek immediate medical help if you experience chest pain, irregular heartbeat, or a sudden decrease or loss of hearing or vision. These are rare but potentially serious complications. While rare, allergic reactions, such as skin rash, itching, or swelling, also necessitate immediate medical assistance. Remember, this information is not a substitute for professional medical advice. Always discuss any concerns with your doctor.
Medication Interactions
Important: Cialis can interact with certain medications, notably nitrates used to treat heart conditions. Taking Cialis with nitrates can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Inform your doctor about all medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, you are taking before starting Cialis.
