USES
Cialis comes as light yellow film-coated tablets. They are in the shape of
almonds and have "C 10" marked on one side. These tablets are available
in blister packs
containing 4 tablets.
Cialis is a treatment for men with erectile dysfunction. This is when a man
cannot get, or keep a hard, erect penis suitable for sexual activity.
Cialis belongs to a group of medicines called phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors.
Following sexual stimulation Cialis works by helping the blood vessels in your
penis to relax, allowing the flow of blood into your penis. The result of this
is improved erectile function. Cialis will not help you if you do not have erectile
dysfunction.
It is important to note that Cialis does not work if there is no sexual stimulation.
You and your partner will need to engage in foreplay, just as you would if you
were not taking a medicine for erectile dysfunction.
DIRECTIONS
Always take Cialis exactly as your doctor has instructed you. You should check
with your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.
The recommended starting dose is one 10 mg tablet before sexual activity. If
the effect of this dose is too weak your doctor may increase the dose to 20
mg. Cialis tablets are for oral use. Swallow the tablet whole with some water.
You may take Cialis with or without food.
You may take a Cialis tablet at any point in time from 30 minutes to 12 hours
before sexual activity. Cialis may still be effective up to 24 hours after taking
the tablet. It is important to note that Cialis does not work if there is no
sexual stimulation. You and your partner will need to engage in foreplay, just
as you would if you were not
taking a medicine for erectile dysfunction.
You should NOT take Cialis more than once a day. Daily use of Cialis is strongly
discouraged.
PRECAUTIONS (Before you Order or Use this Medicine)
Do not take Cialis:
- if you are taking any form of organic nitrate or nitric oxide donors such
as amyl nitrite. This is a group of medicines ("nitrates") used
in the treatment of angina pectoris ("chest pain"). Cialis has been
shown to increase the effects of these drugs. If you are taking any form of
nitrate or are unsure tell your doctor.
- if you have serious heart disease or have had a recent heart attack.
- if you have had a recent stroke.
- if you have low blood pressure or uncontrolled high blood pressure.
- if you are (hypersensitive) allergic to tadalafil or any of the other ingredients
of Cialis.
Take special care with Cialis:
Sexual activity carries a possible risk to patients with heart disease because
it puts an extra strain on your heart. If you have a heart problem you should
tell your doctor. The following are reasons why Cialis may also not be suitable
for you. If any of them apply to you, talk to your doctor before you take the
medicine:
- You have sickle cell anaemia (an abnormality of red blood cells), multiple
myeloma (cancer of the bone marrow), leukaemia (cancer of the blood cells)
or any deformation of your penis.
- You have a serious liver or kidney problem.
Taking other medicines:
As a general rule, always tell your doctor if you are taking or have recently
taken any other medicine, even those not prescribed, because occasionally they
might interact. This is particularly important if you are treated with nitrates
as you should not take Cialis if you are taking these medicines. Do not take
Cialis with other medicines if your doctor tells you that you may not.
You should not use Cialis together with any other treatments for erectile dysfunction.
Cialis is not intended for use by women or by children under the age of 18.
Driving and using machines:
As dizziness has been reported in men taking Cialis in clinical studies, you
should
be aware of how you react to Cialis before you drive or operate machinery.
Information for men intolerant of lactose, one of the ingredients of
Cialis:
Cialis contains galactose and should not be taken by patients with rare hereditary
problems of lactose intolerance, the Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose
malabsorption.
POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTSLike all medicines, Cialis can have side effects. These effects are normally
mild to moderate in nature. The most common undesirable effects are headache
and indigestion. Less commonly reported side effects are back pain, muscle aches,
nasal congestion, facial flushing and dizziness. Uncommon effects are swelling
of the eyelids, eye pain and red eyes.
If you have any of these side effects and they are troublesome, severe, or do
not go away, tell your doctor.
Allergic reactions (including skin rashes) could occur. In rare instances it
is possible that a prolonged and possibly painful erection may occur after taking
Cialis. If you have such an erection, which lasts continuously for more than
4 hours, you should contact a doctor immediately. In case of chest pain occurring
during or after sexual activity you should NOT use nitrates but you should seek
immediate medical assistance.
If you notice any side effects not mentioned in this leaflet, please inform
your doctor or pharmacist.
Heart attack, stroke, and irregular heart beats have been reported rarely in
men taking Cialis. Most, but not all of these men had known heart problems before
taking this medicine. It is not possible to determine whether these events were
directly related to Cialis.
Effects were seen in one animal species that might indicate impairment of fertility.
Subsequent studies in man suggest that this effect is unlikely in humans.
