Cialis (tadalafil) is a medicinal drug from the group of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. It does not create arousal and does not work as a stimulant.
It helps blood vessels relax and dilate more effectively—that is, it improves the conditions for blood flow.
Available dosages: 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg, and 40 mg.
Onset of effect: 1–2 hours.
Duration of action: up to 36 hours.

1. Prolonged action
The drug works for several hours in a row, and in some men—for up to a day or more.
2. No dependence
It does not cause either physical or psychological dependence.
3. Not dependent on food intake
It can be taken regardless of meals.
4. Alcohol is permissible
In reasonable amounts. Of course, it is not advisable to wash the pill down with champagne or cognac.
5. Minimal side effects
According to reviews and clinical practice, side effects are either absent or mild and are most often associated with incorrect use.
6. Various convenient dosages
From 5 to 20 mg.
The 5 mg dose is considered therapeutic and is used for:
o prostate adenoma,
o prostatitis,
o urination disorders.
This dose is taken daily in a course lasting from 1 to 3 months, and sometimes longer—by a doctor’s prescription.
Among all existing PDE-5 inhibitors, only tadalafil is approved by regulatory authorities in the United States and Europe for continuous use.
For daily intake, not the standard 20 mg dose is recommended, but only 5 mg of tadalafil. Clinical trials have confirmed that continuous daily intake of 5 mg of tadalafil is not inferior in effectiveness to episodic intake of 20 mg.
Researchers believe that under normal life conditions it is reasonable to switch from periodic use to continuous use once sexual activity reaches two times per week.
In conclusion, according to recent studies, long-term use of tadalafil also improves bladder function, reduces the frequency of urges associated with age-related changes, and облегчает urination in prostate adenoma.
Yes, it is not as effective as specialized drugs for treating these conditions, but this effect can only be assessed with long-term use.
Cialis is one of the brand-name versions of tadalafil and is the most expensive, but more affordable generic versions of tadalafil are available. Different pharmaceutical companies produce the same medication under different brand names.
As for the cost, generics are quite affordable compared to the well-known Cialis, whose price is approximately 15 times higher than that of its analogues containing the same active substance—tadalafil.
It is sold in almost all countries worldwide.
In many countries, it is available without a prescription.
If the drug is prescription-only in a particular country, it can often be found in online pharmacies.
Clinical studies of continuous tadalafil use lasted from three months up to two years. No tolerance to the drug was detected. Moreover, with good effectiveness, the dose can be reduced to 2.5 mg per day.
• Dizziness and lowered blood pressure
• Abdominal pain and epigastric discomfort
• The most common side effect is headache
Side effects of tadalafil are described in detail in the instructions; however, they are listed for the 20 mg dose intended for single episodic use. With continuous use of 5 mg or even 2.5 mg, side effects occur rarely.
The potential danger to the heart and health is often caused not by Cialis itself, but by the strain on the cardiovascular system during sexual intercourse.
High-risk conditions include:
• severe heart failure;
• unstable angina;
• myocardial infarction or stroke within the past 6 months;
• life-threatening arrhythmias;
• blood pressure above 170/100 mmHg;
• or, conversely, persistently low blood pressure below 90/50 mmHg.
It is important to understand:
these are contraindications not for erectile medications, but for sexual activity in general.
• Avoid sex after meals—morning, before breakfast, is preferable.
• Alcohol only symbolically, or better avoided altogether.
• Smoking is a risk factor—minimize it as much as possible.
• Cardiac load is lower in the “woman on top” position.
• Sex is safer with a familiar partner in a calm environment.
Tadalafil must never be combined with nitrates prescribed for angina.
Be sure to clarify with your doctor what interval should be maintained between their use.
Tadalafil must also not be combined with so-called poppers—these are inhalant drugs containing nitrates.
