Basic Information
What is Cialis (tadalafil)?
Cialis is in a class of medications known as PDE-5 inhibitors,
which are used to treat cases of male impotence
How does Cialis (tadalafil) work?
Cialis acts in the same way as Viagra, by blocking an enzyme
called phosphodiesterase-5, or PDE-5. This helps the smooth
muscles in the penis relax and widen, which allows for more
blood to enter. As a result, you gain erections faster and
easier with Cialis.Studies show Cialis can remain in the
bloodstream up to 36 hours
How well does Cialis (tadalafil) work?
Cialis test results showed that out of 700 participants
at least 88% of men experienced improvement with their erections
with Cialis.
What's the normal Cialis (tadalafil) dose?
In Cialis clinical testing most men were administered one
10 mg Cialis or 20 mg Cialis tablet per day.
Are there any side effects with Cialis (tadalafil)?
The most common side effects reported with Cialis in the
study were headache, myalgia (muscle pain), dyspepsia (upset
stomach following meals) and back pain. The severities of
these Cialis side effects were minimized with lower doses
of Cialis.

1. WHAT CIALIS IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Cialis comes as yellow film coated tablets.
They are in the shape of almonds and have "C 20"
marked on one side. These tablets are available in blister
packs containing 2,4 or 8 tablets.
Cialis is a treatment for men with erectile
dysfunction. This is when a man cannot get, or keep a hard,
erect penis suitable for sexual activity.
Cialis belongs to a group of medicines called
phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors following following
sexual stimulation Cialis works by helping the blood vessels
in your penis to relax, allowing the flow
of blood into your penis. The result of this is improved
erectile function. Cialis will not help you if
you do not have erectile dysfunction.
It is important to note that Cialis does
not work if there is no sexual stimulation. You
and your partner will need to engage in foreplay, just as
you would if you were not
taking a medicine for erectile dysfunction.
2. BEFORE YOU TAKE CIALIS.
Do not take Cialis if:
You are taking any form of organic nitrate
or nitric oxide donors
such as amyl nitrite. This is a group of medicines (nitrates)
used in the
treatment of angina pectoris (chest pain). Cialis has been
shown to increase
the effects of these drugs. If you are taking any form of
nitrate or are unsure
tell your doctor.
You have serious heart disease or have had
a recent heart attack.
You have had a recent stroke.
You have low blood pressure or uncontrolled
high blood pressure.
You are (hypersensitive) allergic to tadalafil
or any of the other
ingredients of Cialis.
Take Special care with Cialis:
Sexual activity carries a possible risk to patients with
heart disease
because it puts an extra strain on your heart. If you have
a heart problem you should
tell your doctor. The following are reasons why Cialis may
also not be suitable for you.
if any of them apply to you, talk to your doctor before
you take the medicine.
* You have sickle cell anaemia (an abnormality of red blood
cells), Multiple myeloma
(cancer of the bone marrow), Leukaemia (caner of the blood
cells) or any deformation
of your penis. *If you have a serious liver or kidney problem.
Taking other medicines:
As a general rule, always tell your doctor if you are taking
or have recently taken any
other medicine, even those not prescribed, because occasionally
they might interact.
This is particulary important if you are treated with nitates
as you should not take
Cialis if you are taking these medicines. Do not take Cialis
with any other treatments
if your doctor tells you that you may not.
You should not use Cialis together with
any other treatments for erectile dysfunction.
Cialis is not intended for use by woman or by children under
the age of 18.
Driving and using machines:
As dizziness has been reported in men taking Cialis in clinical
studies, you should be aware of how
you react to cialis before you drive or operate machinery.
Information for men intolerant of lactose,
one of the ingredients of cialis:
Cialis contains lactose and should not be taken by patients
with rare hereditary problems
of galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactase deficiency of
glucose-galactose malabsorption.
3. HOW TO TAKE CIALIS.
Always take Cialis exactly as your doctor has instructed
you. You should check with your doctor
or pharmacist if you are unsure. The recommended starting
dose is one 10mg tablet
before sexual activity. If the effect of this dose is too
weak your doctor may increase the dose
to 20mg. Cialis tablets are for oral use. Swallow the tablet
whole with some water. You
may take Cialis with or without food.
You may take a cialis tablet at any point
in time from 30 minutes to 12 hours before
sexual activity. Cialis may still be effective up to 24
hours after taking the tablet.
It is important to note that Cialis does not work if there
is no sexual stimulation.
You and your partner will need to engage in foreplay, just
as you would if you were not
taking a medicine for erectile dysfunction.
You should not take Cialis more than once
a day. Daily use of Cialis is strongly discouraged.
If you take more Cialis than you should:
Tell your Doctor.
4. POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS.
Like all medicines, Cialis can have side effects. These
effects are normally mild to moderate in nature.
The most common undesirable effects are headache and indigestion.
Less commonly
reported side effects are back pain, muscle aches, nasal
congestion, facial flushing and dizziness.
Uncommon effects are swelling of the eyelids, eye pain and
red eyes.
If you have any of these side effects and
they are troublesome, sever, or do not go away, tell your
doctor.
Allergic reactions (including skin rashes)could occur.
In rare instances it is possible that a prolonged and possibly
painful erection may occur after taking cialis.
If you have such an erection, which lasts continuously for
more than 4 hours, you should contact a doctor
immediately.
In case of chest pain occurring during or
after sexual activity you should NOT use nitrates
but you should seek immediate medical assistance.
If you notice any side effects not mentioned in this leaflet,
please inform your doctor or pharmacist.
Heart attack, stroke, and irregular heart beats have been
reported rarely in men taking Cialis.
Most, but not all of these men had known heart problems
before taking this medicine. It
is not possible to determine whether these events were directly
related to Cialis.
Effects were seen in one animal species
that might indicate impairment of fertility. Subsequent
studies in man suggest that this effect is unlikely in humans.
5. STORING CIALIS.
Keep out of reach and sight of children.
Store in the original package.
Do not use after the expiry date stated on the carton and
blister pack.
