How to take tadalafil
Daily
Daily tadalafil is designed to be taken once each day in a lower dosage (2.5mg or 5mg), that gradually builds up in your system, allowing for spontaneity in sexual encounters without waiting for a pill to take effect.
As-needed
For those opting for the as-needed regimen, take tadalafil prior to your intended intimate encounter. It typically reaches peak effectiveness within two hours of ingestion and can sustain its effects for up to 36 hours. This dosage is higher (5mg, 10mg, or 20mg) compared to daily use, thus should be taken with caution and not consecutively on multiple days.
Common tadalafil side effects
Typical side effects associated with generic Cialis® consist of headaches, upset stomach, facial flushing, nasal congestion, and changes in vision. If any of these effects become troublesome or unmanageable, reach out to your healthcare provider for guidance and management.
What is tadalafil used for?
Tadalafil is an affordable generic prescription medication indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED), benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Like its branded counterparts Cialis® and Adcirca®, it falls within the category of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors, which function by slowing the action of the PDE5 enzyme to promote healthier blood flow through the body’s vascular systems.
How long does tadalafil take to work?
When taken for erectile dysfunction, the effects of tadalafil can commence within 30 to 45 minutes and reach peak effect in around two hours. Like other ED medications, it must be ingested well in advance of anticipated sexual activity in order to be effective.
If taken daily at a lower prescribed dose, tadalafil may enhance your ability to achieve an erection during sexual arousal over time. Users might observe improvements as soon as four to five days after starting daily tadalafil therapy.
How long does tadalafil last?
Each dose of tadalafil taken for sexual activity can remain effective for a duration of up to 36 hours, with peak concentration typically occurring between 30 minutes and 6 hours post-ingestion, averaging around two hours. This prolonged effectiveness allows for greater freedom and spontaneity in sexual situations over a period of days.
What is in tadalafil?
The tadalafil tablets provided through Hims are formulated with the active ingredient tadalafil alongside inactive compounds 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?
Hims provides tadalafil at competitive rates in various strengths tailored to meet individual needs. The dosing for tadalafil varies depending on whether the medication is intended for daily use versus as-needed consumption.
Daily tadalafil gradually builds up in your system, leading to effective outcomes comparable to higher doses taken as needed. Generally, 5 mg of daily treatment can provide an equivalent effect to 8 mg of tadalafil consumed before sexual activity. Conversely, as-needed tadalafil is typically prescribed at higher doses (10 mg or 20 mg), contingent upon personal health conditions and age considerations.
Are tadalafil and Cialis® the same thing?
Tadalafil is the cost-effective, generic alternative to Cialis®, which was originally developed and manufactured by Eli Lilly. The patent for Cialis® expired in 2018, paving the way for generic tadalafil to enter the market. Both tadalafil and Cialis® have been shown to be safe and effective for treating erectile dysfunction, with the key difference being the much lower price of tadalafil.
Is tadalafil stronger than Viagra®?
Although dosing regimens differ between Viagra® and tadalafil, the latter boasts a significant advantage in its extended duration of action—lasting up to 36 hours as opposed to Viagra®, which typically lasts 4 to 5 hours.
What are the side effects of tadalafil?
Commonly reported side effects associated with tadalafil (generic Cialis) include headaches, digestive issues, back discomfort, muscle pain, facial flushing, nasal congestion, dizziness, and potential changes in vision. While serious side effects are rare, they can include severe drops in blood pressure, allergic reactions, sudden vision or hearing loss, and prolonged erections (priapism) lasting more than four hours. Should you experience any of these serious effects, seek immediate medical attention.
Is tadalafil safe?
Generally, tadalafil (generic Cialis) is deemed safe for most men experiencing erectile dysfunction. However, men with pre-existing health issues should inform their healthcare provider before starting any erectile dysfunction medication.
Relevant medical conditions include but are not limited to heart issues such as heart failure or prior heart attacks, angina, arrhythmias, fluctuating blood pressure, retinitis pigmentosa, pulmonary hypertension, stroke history, liver or kidney disorders, severe visual impairment, gastric ulcers, bleeding disorders, and deformities of the penis, including Peyronie’s disease.
Does tadalafil have any interactions?
Tadalafil (generic Cialis) is typically safe to use with other medications unless contraindicated due to known interactions. Common drug interactions include nitrates, alpha-blockers, guanylate cyclase stimulators, certain antifungals, and antibiotics. Notable examples are nitroglycerin, amyl nitrate, doxazosin, erythromycin, and ketoconazole. Consultation with a healthcare provider is crucial if you are taking other medications in conjunction with tadalafil. It’s equally imperative to adhere to medical advice when combining tadalafil with other ED medications, such as sildenafil (Viagra®), avanafil (Stendra®), and vardenafil (Levitra®).
A note of caution: avoid grapefruit juice while taking tadalafil, as it can interfere with the drug’s absorption, potentially leading to heightened effects. It’s advisable to refrain from consuming grapefruit for 72 hours prior to taking tadalafil. Delve deeper into the relationship between Cialis® and grapefruit juice to ensure safe use.
Is tadalafil a controlled substance?
No, tadalafil is not classified as a controlled substance according to the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).
Can you take tadalafil every day?
Daily doses of tadalafil, particularly in 5 mg and 10 mg strengths, are typically safe for everyday use and are not recommended from the higher 20 mg dose. This low-dose daily option is tailored for men who desire continued readiness for sexual encounters without the anticipation of taking a pill just before intimacy.
