What are Cialis Pills?

Cialis pills are a medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). They contain the active ingredient tadalafil, which works by increasing blood flow to the penis or lungs, resulting in improved sexual function or breathing. Cialis pills are taken orally and can be effective for up to 36 hours. They are available by prescription only and should be used under the guidance of a healthcare provider.

How does it work

Cialis works by relaxing the blood vessels in the penis or lungs, allowing for increased blood flow to these areas. The active ingredient, tadalafil, inhibits an enzyme called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), which is responsible for breaking down a molecule called cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). cGMP is a chemical that helps to dilate blood vessels and increase blood flow to the penis or lungs. By inhibiting PDE5, tadalafil allows cGMP to accumulate, leading to improved blood flow and better erectile function or improved breathing in people with PAH. However, Cialis does not increase sexual arousal and requires sexual stimulation to work.

Dosages

Cialis is available in several different dosages, including:

2.5 mg

5 mg

10 mg

20 mg

The recommended starting dose for most men with erectile dysfunction is 10 mg, taken at least 30 minutes before sexual activity. The maximum recommended dose is 20 mg, which should not be exceeded within a 24-hour period.

For the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension, the recommended dose is 40 mg once daily. However, the dosage may be adjusted by a healthcare provider based on the individual's response and tolerance to the medication.

It is important to follow the dosing instructions provided by a healthcare provider and not exceed the recommended dosage, as this can increase the risk of side effects.

Side Effects

Like any medication, Cialis can cause side effects. Some of the most common side effects include:

• Headache

• Indigestion

• Back pain

• Muscle aches

• Flushing

• Stuffy or runny nose

Less common but more serious side effects may include:

• Sudden loss of vision or hearing

• Irregular heartbeat

• Chest pain or discomfort

• Fainting or lightheadedness

• Seizures

• Allergic reaction

If any of these serious side effects occur, it is important to seek medical attention immediately. People with certain medical conditions or who are taking certain medications may be at a higher risk of experiencing side effects, so it is important to talk to a healthcare provider before taking Cialis.

Precaution

Before taking Cialis, it is important to discuss with a healthcare provider any medical conditions or medications that may interact with the medication. Some precautions to consider include:

• Cialis should not be taken by individuals who are taking medications containing nitrates, as this can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.

• People with a history of heart problems or stroke should use caution when taking Cialis, as it can increase the risk of heart-related side effects.

• Cialis should not be taken by individuals with severe liver or kidney disease.

• People with a history of priapism (a painful and prolonged erection) should use caution when taking Cialis.

• Cialis may interact with some medications, such as alpha-blockers or blood pressure medications, so it is important to inform a healthcare provider of all medications being taken.

It is also important to follow the dosing instructions provided by a healthcare provider and not exceed the recommended dosage, as this can increase the risk of side effects.
