Take a look at UK Med's Google Web Story: A-Z Guide of Viagra. It features definitions of various erectile dysfunction (ED) medications including Viagra, Cialis, Tadalafil, Sildenafil, Viagra Connect & more Viagra-related terminology.

For more information on the prescription medication patients should refer to the Cialis (Tadalafil) patient information leaflet.

Cialis lost its exclusive patent in the UK in November 2017 (Yahoo Finance, 2017) and is now available legally in the UK as generic tadalafil tablets. ‘Cialis’ is a brand name, ‘tadalafil’ is the medical name and active ingredient. While the branded version is typically more expensive than generic tadalafil, they are essentially the same medication. Generic tadalafil is available at much lower cost.

What experiences have Cialis users had?

Cialis Reviews

There are a large selection of Cialis reviews describing what people think about their experiences with the medication available at Drugs.com and Web MD.

It is important to note that people may have different experiences when they use Cialis (tadalafil). If someone states that their medication did not work as they had hoped, it does not mean that it will not work for you. If you believe that Cialis is the right medication for you then the best thing to do is to consult your doctor or healthcare professional, and judge the medication based on your own experiences if they recommend it as a treatment. The importance of a user product review should not be understated. Reading reviews and patient experiences can provide you with important advice and information that you may not have known, and can inform you on whether or not to start using Cialis (tadalafil).

You should always take Cialis (tadalafil) and any other erectile dysfunction medications as instructed by your doctor or healthcare provider.

Typically, the starting do you should take one tablet with a full glass of water at least 30 minutes before sexual intercourse (EMC, 2023). You can drink the medication with or without food but remember that it may take a bit longer to effect if you drink it after a heavy meal. This type should only be taken as needed.

Typically, the starting dose should be 10mg but your doctor may decide to recommend a stronger dosage if they feel that 10mg may be too weak for your individual requirements.

Other branded forms of Cialis are also dosed in a similar way.

Cialis Dosage

The original 36-hour Cialis erectile dysfunction treatment has two doses: 10 mg tablets and 20 mg tablets. For those starting out with the drug, a doctor would usually recommended to taking the 10 mg starting dose first and keep it if the desired effects occur. However, if you find that this does isn't working as effectively as you hoped, your doctor may try increasing the dose to the 20mg tablet. If you are still unsatisfied with the effect, then you can talk to your doctor about alternative solutions.

Cialis Daily Dosage

Cialis Daily has two dosages mainly the 2.5 mg variant and the 5 mg variant. Typically, patients start by taking the 5 mg tablet and adjust the strength according to how successful the ED treatment has been, after consulting with their doctor, GP or healthcare provider.

Cialis Together Dosage

Cialis Together is an over the counter version of Cialis and comes in a 10mg strength. A Cialis Together tablet should typically be taken 30 minutes before sex.

Cialis FAQs

What is Cialis Daily?

Cialis Daily

Cialis Daily is another form of Cialis that provides a low tadalafil daily dose to the patient. As a regular form of Cialis treatment it helps to ensure that the level of tadalafil in the body is sufficient to help increase blood flow to the penis and facilitate spontaneous erections to help sex. As is the case with Cialis too, Cialis Daily will not treat the underlying physical causes of your erectile dysfunction and will not directly increase your sex drive in any way.

Can you buy Cialis over the counter?

Cialis Together

Cialis Together is an over the counter version of branded tadalafil medication, Cialis. It helps adult men with erectile dysfunction, during sexual activity, to get and keep an erection that allows them to have satisfactory sex (EMC, 2023).

A Cialis tablet typically takes 30 minutes to take effect along with sexual stimulation and it will be effective for 36 hours (Drugs.com, 2023).

Can alcohol interact with Cialis?

Yes, drinking alcohol at the same time as taking Cialis can lead to orthostatic hypotension, lowering your blood pressure and leading to side effects such as fainting, dizziness and headaches (Healthline, 2016). Your doctor may recommend that you limit alcohol consumption whilst taking Cialis (Medical News Today, 2022).

What precautions does Cialis come with?

Your doctor will be able to advise you on any precautions to consider prior to starting ED treatment with Cialis. According to the NHS (2022), some medicines interact negatively with tadalafil including riociguat for pulmonary hypertension and nitrates for chest pain; some herbal remedies and supplements may not mix well with tadalafil either.

Is Cialis stronger than Viagra?

The active ingredients in the ED medication Cialis and Viagra are different. The active ingredient in Cialis is tadalafil whereas the active ingredient in Viagra is sildenafil. Whilst Cialis (tadalafil) doesn't help people to achieve harder erections than if they were to take Viagra (sildenafil), Cialis has a longer mechanism of action (Medical News Today, 2023).

How does Cialis (tadalafil) work?

Erectile Dysfunction

Tadalafil, the active ingredient in Cialis, is a PDE5 inhibitor drug that increases blood flow to the penis. For erectile dysfunction patients, it temporarily increases blood flow to the penis and enables a firmer, longer-lasting erection once you are sexually excited (NHS, 2022).

Enlarged Prostate

Tadalafil can help patients with an enlarged prostate gland by relaxing the muscles in the prostate and bladder, to reduce symptoms such as an urgent need to pee and difficulty when peeing.

Pulmonary Hypertension

Tadalafil can also help to relax blood vessels in the chest, reducing the workload of the heart and increasing blood supply to the lungs, making it a potential treatment for pulmonary hypertension.

Speak to your doctor if you think tadalafil could be a suitable treatment for your individual requirements.

Why is Cialis called the weekend pill?

Cialis is sometimes called the weekend pill because it's effects can last for up to 36 hours (Drugs.com, 2023). Therefore if you take it on a Friday evening it can help you to achieve and maintain an erection for most of the weekend, when you are sexually excited.

Can Cialis treat premature ejaculation?

No, scientific studies have shown that while taking a 5mg daily dose of tadalafil, the active ingredient in Cialis, is safe it doesn't provide a statistically significant improvement in patients suffering from premature ejaculation (Faddan et al, 2022).
