Cialis

Cialis was originally developed and is manufactured by the pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly and Company. However, after the patent expiration, generic versions of the drug containing tadalafil have also become available, produced by various companies.

Cialis is typically available in tablets of different strengths, such as 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg. The strength is determined based on the severity of erectile dysfunction and individual response to the medication. It is usually recommended to start with a lower strength and adjust the dosage as needed under medical supervision.

Cialis is usually taken orally (by mouth) approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour before planned sexual activity. The medication works by increasing blood flow to the penis, making it easier to achieve and maintain an erection. The duration of action of Cialis is typically around 36 hours, which is longer compared to other erectile dysfunction medications.

Before starting Cialis or any other medication for erectile dysfunction, it is essential to consult with your doctor. The doctor will assess your health condition and prescribe the appropriate strength based on your needs and medical history. They will also inform you about possible side effects and interactions with other medications and provide instructions on the proper use of the medication.

Additionally, it is important to note that Cialis is not a contraceptive and does not protect against sexually transmitted infections, so it is always advisable to use appropriate protection during sexual activity.
