Cialis, or its generic form Tadalafil, are prescription-only medications in the U.S.
This includes if you get your generic Cialis through an online pharmacy.
By requiring a prescription, you know that your medication and conditions have been reviewed by both a doctor and the pharmacist dispensing the medication, and this keeps you safer.
A prescription ensures that you are getting unadulterated FDA-approved medications.
You should steer clear from any place claiming that a prescription is not required for Cialis or Tadalafil, as there is no way to verify the authenticity of the product.
While Cialis or its generic, Tadalafil, are generally well-tolerated in many patient populations, there can be some severe and possibly life-threatening interactions with certain disease states or medications.
Whether you speak with your local doctor to see if you are clear to use Cialis or Tadalafil, or conduct a visit online with a physician, this step is crucial to ensure your safety.
Generic Cialis was released by Teva in October 2018.
Many patients see a significant cost savings when using the generic form of medications vs the brand.
Generic forms contain the exact same amount of the active ingredient (tadalafil) and should function in the body exactly the same.
The only difference between the generic and brand medications may be the inactive ingredients, or “fillers.”
Your generic medication may have a different color, size, or shape than the brand medication, but you can be certain that the same active ingredients are contained.
With Cialis or generic Cialis, the onset is about the same as other medications for ED - about 30 minutes after taking the tablet.
But, the interesting thing about Cialis or generic Cialis, is that one dose lasts so much longer than, say, Viagra.
Cialis is considered more of “the weekend pill” because just one tablet can continue working in your system for up to 36 hours!
Now, this doesn’t mean that the erection will last for that long (you will need to seek medical attention if an erection lasts longer than 4 hours), but your body will be better equipped to maintain an erection for that time span.
Cialis and its generic Tadalafil work in your system for a very long time, up to 36 hours, so taking more than once daily can put you at risk for increased side effects and may be dangerous.
Nitrates, or Nitroglycerin, are popular medications that help with chest pain, also known as angina.
But, there is a dangerous and potentially life-threatening interaction with Cialis or Tadalafil and Nitrates and absolutely cannot be taken together.
Other medications or drugs that are considered Nitrates include: Nitroglycerin, Isosorbide Dinitrate, Isosorbide Mononitrate, or recreational “poppers” that contain Amyl Nitrite and Butyl Nitrite.
Talk to your doctor about other ED options if you are taking these medications.
BPH, or benign prostatic hyperplasia is a disease where the prostate enlarges and produces urinary symptoms.
Cialis has also been approved for the treatment of BPH, and it is possible that a man has both ED and BPH and uses Cialis for both.
Combining Cialis with alcohol may induce certain symptoms like headache, dizziness, increased heart rate, or lowered blood pressure.
The Cialis package insert considers 5 glasses of wine or 5 shots of whiskey to be too much.
The most common side effects of Cialis or its generic Tadalafil include headache, indigestion, back pain, muscle aches, flushing, and a stuffy or runny nose.
These side effects generally resolve themselves within 12 hours to 2 days.
