What is tadalafil used for?

Tadalafil is a cost-effective generic prescription medication utilized to manage various conditions, including erectile dysfunction (impotence), benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and high blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries (pulmonary arterial hypertension). Tadalafil is classified alongside its brand-name equivalents, Cialis® and Adcirca®, as a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor. These medications work by preventing the enzyme PDE5 from acting too quickly, allowing for enhanced blood flow through the body’s vessels. This mechanism is particularly beneficial for the erectile function of the penis.

How long does tadalafil take to work?

Tadalafil, which is the lowest cost generic form of Cialis®, can begin to take effect within 30-45 minutes when taken on an as-needed basis for erectile dysfunction, but most men experience peak effects around 2 hours after ingestion. Like other as-needed ED medications, it should be taken ahead of anticipated sexual activity to ensure proper timing for onset.

Alternatively, tadalafil can be taken in a lower daily prescribed dosage. When administered this way over time, many men find they can achieve an erection more easily in response to sexual stimulation, often as soon as 4 to 5 days after starting a daily regimen.

How long does tadalafil last?

A single dose of tadalafil taken for sexual activity can remain effective for as long as 36 hours; however, the peak concentration of the medication in the bloodstream usually occurs between 30 minutes and 6 hours, with a median time of around 2 hours. Due to the prolonged duration of effectiveness, tadalafil can be taken well ahead of time, allowing for a more spontaneous sexual experience throughout the day or evening.

What is in tadalafil?

Tadalafil tablets offered through Hims contain the active compound tadalafil along with a range of inactive ingredients, such as croscarmellose sodium, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hypromellose, iron oxide, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, sodium lauryl sulfate, talc, titanium dioxide, and triacetin.

How much tadalafil should I take?

We provide tadalafil at affordable prices in various strengths tailored to individual needs. The dosage of tadalafil can vary depending on whether it’s intended for daily or as-needed use.

The daily tadalafil regimen builds up to a total of 1.6 times the prescribed daily dose; thus, the 5 mg daily treatment offered through Hims is comparable to taking 8 mg before sexual activity. In contrast, tadalafil for as-needed use is typically administered at higher doses due to the lack of time for it to build up in your system. Standard starting doses for as-needed tadalafil generally include 10 or 20 mg, contingent on individual health considerations and age.

Are tadalafil and Cialis® the same thing?

Tadalafil is the affordable generic alternative to the brand-name Cialis®.

Both tadalafil and brand-name Cialis® have been proven to be safe and effective in treating erectile dysfunction, with the significant difference being that tadalafil comes at a substantially reduced price.
