    Is Cialis right for you?

    What is so great about Cialis? Isn't Viagra good enough? There are a few different options when it comes to selecting the best ED medication. Cialis is an erectile dysfunction medication, similar to Viagra. While the "blue pill" is known to most people, not as many have heard of Cialis. Is Cialis right for you? How is it different to Viagra? Learn more about this amazing ED medication below.

    How is Cialis different from Viagra?

    Cialis is slightly more expensive than Viagra. Viagra is available over-the-counter as "Viagra Connect", but there is no OTC version of Cialis in the UK. Why then would you want to take Cialis over Viagra? Here are two of the main reasons:

    • Convenience: Cialis works up to 36 hours after taking, compared to a maximum of 12 hours for Viagra. This is why Cialis has been called the "weekend pill", because you can take it on Friday night and it's good through the weekend. You may not always know when sex will happen; Cialis will let you be better prepared for when it does.

    • Side effects: Cialis doesn't have the same side effects as Viagra. The main two side effects that concern some Viagra users are rashes and muscle aches. If you experience these problems with Viagra, you should give Cialis a try.

    How does Cialis work?

    Cialis helps to increase blood flow to the penis when a man is stimulated sexually. If you can already achieve an erection, Cialis may not offer any benefits. However, for people who have erectile dysfunction, Cialis can help a man achieve an erection, even if they suffer from ED. There are many causes of erectile dysfunction. Stress, diet, age, the quantity of exercise and other factors can cause a man to have problems getting or maintaining an erection. Cialis can help men who suffer from the following conditions:

    • Can get large, but not firm

    • Can get firm, but not firm enough for penetration

    • Can penetrate, but not have enough rigidity for pleasurable sex

    If you suffer from any of the above-listed conditions, Cialis may help. Another way that Cialis can help is by reducing the refractory period. This is the amount of time a man needs in order to recover after their last ejaculation. Cialis can reduce the amount of time needed to recover in order to engage in sex again.

    Do I need a prescription to buy Cialis in the UK?

    While Viagra can be purchased over-the-counter as "Viagra Connect", Cialis continues to need a prescription in the UK. While this sounds inconvenient, keep in mind that you can apply for a prescription online for Cialis through UK Meds consultation service. Simply check out with Cialis in your basket and you will be prompted to supply information to receive a prescription.

    Can Cialis be purchased over-the-counter in the UK?

    Cialis requires a prescription in the UK. Certain health conditions or conflicts with other medicines can make it unsafe to take Cialis. When you apply for a prescription, your doctor will ask the necessary questions to determine if Cialis is safe for you to take. If you don't have a prescription for Cialis, our online prescription service may be able to assist you in getting one.

    Is Cialis available as generic medication?

    The generic version of Cialis is called Tadalafil. While essentially the same medication, Tadalafil is much cheaper than the branded version Cialis. We sell both versions here at UK Meds. At the time of this writing, the cost of Cialis is from 77p per tablet. To see the current price, visit our Cialis page.

    How much does Cialis cost?

    The active ingredient in Cialis is Tadalafil. Tadalafil is the generic version of Cialis, which is cheaper than if you purchase the branded version. Currently, UK Meds is selling tadalafil beginning at around 77p per tablet. To get the latest prices, follow this link to buy Cialis. Currently, generic Tadalafil is less than half the price of the branded Cialis tablet.

    How long does Cialis last?

    Where Viagra is effective after 30 to 60 minutes and lasts up to 12 hours, Cialis is effective between an hour and 36 hours after taking. For this reason, Cialis has been called the "weekend pill". It is convenient for those who do not know exactly when they will have sex and want to be ready when the time presents itself.

    Will Cialis make you able to orgasm again quicker?

    The amount of time after a man has an orgasm before he can have another is called the "refractory period". This period of time fluctuates between different men and can last from an hour to several days, depending on age and other factors. Drugs such as Viagra and Cialis are able to shorten the refractory period, allowing a man to have multiple orgasms more quickly than they otherwise would without ED medicine.

    Does Cialis make you last longer?

    Erectile dysfunction is a different problem than premature ejaculation. If you have a problem with ejaculating too quickly during sex, Cialis (or Viagra) will likely not help you last longer. There are other medications designed to help a man last longer in bed, such as Priligy or EMLA Cream.

    Where to buy Cialis online

    You may or may not have a prescription for Cialis. Where can you buy online, safely, with convenient overnight delivery (most days of the week)? UK Meds is an online clinic. We have generic tadalafil and branded Cialis for sale. If you don't have a prescription for Cialis, our online prescription service may be able to assist you in getting one from the convenience of your home. Simply begin a consultation for Cialis or Tadalafil and you will be guided through the steps necessary to order online.
