Tadalafil tabs

Tadalafil is a medicine used in the treatment of erectile dysfunction (impotence). Tadalafil is called a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor, and works by preventing the action of a chemical in the body called phosphodiesterase type 5.

The dose should be taken at least 30 minutes before intended intercourse, and it may produce an erection in response to sexual stimulation for up to 36 hours after taking the dose.

- Unless your doctor or pharmacist tells you otherwise, you should avoid drinking grapefruit juice while taking this medicine, as it may increase the level of this medicine in your blood and hence increase the risk of side effects.

- If your erection lasts longer than 4 hours (priapism), consult a doctor immediately. Treatment of this condition should not be delayed more than 6 hours, as this can cause damage to the erectile tissue in the penis and irreversible erectile dysfunction.

Tadalafil must not be taken with any form of nitrate medication, as this combination can produce a severe drop in blood pressure that can cause dizziness, fainting, or even a heart attack.

If Tadalafil is taken by people who are taking medicines for high blood pressure (antihypertensives), the combination may potentially cause an extra drop in blood pressure. This is unlikely to be significant, but you should be aware that if it does occur it may make you feel dizzy. This is more likely to occur in people taking alpha blocker medicines such as doxazosin, some of which are used to treat an enlarged prostate gland as well as high blood pressure. Tadalafil is therefore not recommended for men taking alpha blockers.
