Tadalafil (Generic Cialis)

$20.00

Tadalafil is the generic alternative to Cialis for treating erectile dysfunction (ED). It’s more affordable than the brand name. Taken as needed, it can help men achieve and maintain stronger erections. 

Tadalafil belongs to a class of drugs called PDE5 inhibitors. These medications work by blocking an enzyme called phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5). By blocking PDE5, tadalafil allows blood vessels to relax and widen. This improved blood flow can benefit specific areas of the body, including the penis. Clinical studies show effectiveness lasting up to 36 hours. 

Tadalafil is also used to treat Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), which means an enlarged prostate gland. BPH is a common condition in older men that affects urinary function. By relaxing muscles in the prostate and bladder, tadalafil helps alleviate BPH symptoms like difficulty urinating, weak stream, and frequent urination (including at night).

It’s important to consult a doctor before taking this medication, especially if you have any underlying health conditions.

Description

Benefits

Tadalafil offers several benefits, including:

  • Improved Blood Flow: Tadalafil increases blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. This enhanced blood flow allows men to achieve and maintain an erection.
  • Generic Availability: Tadalafil is a generic medication, making it more affordable than brand names like Cialis.
  • Long-lasting Effects: In the case of ED, Tadalafil can be effective for up to 36 hours after taking it. However, it’s important to note that sexual stimulation is still necessary for an erection to occur.

In some cases, Tadalafil may even be a preferred option over other medications for BPH due to:

  • Dual Benefit: It can address both BPH symptoms and ED if a man experiences both conditions.

Once-a-Day Option: It can be taken daily for ongoing BPH management.

General Information

Both Tadalafil and Sildenafil address ED, but with key differences:

  • Spontaneity: Tadalafil offers more flexibility. It can be taken “as needed” before sex (typically 10mg or 20mg) or even daily at a lower dose (2.5mg or 5mg) for ongoing sexual spontaneity. Sildenafil requires planning, as it’s most effective within 2-4 hours of intake.
  • Duration: Tadalafil has the longest-lasting effect. It remains active for up to 36 hours, while Sildenafil typically works for 2-4 hours.
  • Food Interaction: Food doesn’t impact Tadalafil’s effectiveness. However, a heavy meal can delay Sildenafil’s action by about an hour.

For BPH, Tadalafil manages the symptoms but doesn’t cure the condition. It works by relaxing muscles in the prostate and bladder, making it easier to urinate and improving symptoms like:

  • Difficulty starting urination
  • Weak urine stream
  • Frequent urination (including at night)
