About Cialis
Cialis is part of a group of drugs called PDE5 inhibitors which are treatments for erectile dysfunction. These drugs work by increasing the blood flow to your penis when sexually stimulated. For men who are unable to achieve a sufficient erection for penetration, Cialis and the other erectile dysfunction medication, have proven highly effective. They have helped millions of men have normal sex lives. The ability to buy online after a consultation allows men who may not otherwise seek treatment, to access these medicines.
Why Cialis?
The main reason many men may choose Cialis over the other ED drugs available is its long-lasting effect. Tadalafil can be effective for up to 72 hours after dosing, and so men may be able to have regular sexual activity for 3 days after taking a dose. While many patients who used Cialis have now chosen to use the generic form, there is still a brand recognition with the original Lilly product, and men will still choose Cialis over Tadalafil for this reason.
Due to this long-lasting effect, Cialis has become known as "The Weekend Pill". This long-lasting effect is the distinct difference between Viagra and Cialis, and the reason why men will select Cialis over the other PDE5 inhibitor drugs available.
Cialis Daily
More recently, Cialis has become available as a daily dose in 2.5 and 5mg strengths. Men may consider using the daily dosage if they have found the 'when required' dosage effective. The reason the daily form of the drug is advantageous is that men no longer need to always remember to take their Cialis dose 30 minutes before sexual activity.
The daily dose is taken each day and maintains levels of Tadalafil in the blood. This means that an erection should be achieved at any time of day or night, without needing to remember to take your medication just before. This daily tablet is particularly useful for men with highly active sex lives.
Summary
Taking Cialis | Take one tablet about 30 minutes before sex. The effects of Cialis can sometimes be noticed as soon as after 30 minutes, and last for up to 36 hours. The recommended starting dose is 10mg. 20mg dose is reserved for men who do not respond to 10mg. Never take more than ONE tablet within 36 hours Although Cialis can be taken with food, this may slow down the time it takes for the drug to work. |
How it works | Cialis works by increasing blood flow into the erectile tissue of the penis. Cialis does not have an impact on libido, only your ability to get and maintain an erection when sexually aroused. |
Effectiveness | Most men will notice a firmer and longer-lasting erection. If the treatment does not work, ask our doctors (or your own GP), whether it would be appropriate to increase the dose. Alternatively, they may recommend another treatment. If Cialis doesn’t work for you first time around, it could nevertheless be more effective next time. Doctors often advise trying all erectile dysfunction medicines eight times before giving up. |
Side effects | While side effects are uncommon, they can include vomiting, nausea, and diarrhoea. Cialis can also cause nasal congestion, headaches, facial flushing, slight vertigo, a pounding heartbeat, and blurred vision. |
Nitrates and Cialis | Cialis cannot be prescribed by our doctor if you are taking nicorandil or nitrate-based medication, such as GTN spray or isosorbide mononitrate tablets for angina. |
Alpha-blockers and Cialis | If you are taking alpha-blocking medicines, such as tamsulosin or trazodone, you are advised to leave at least six hours between taking your alpha-blocker and Cialis. |

Cialis Alternatives
Alternative treatment options to Cialis include the famous blue pill, Viagra. Sildenafil is a generic form of Viagra, which is cheaper. Both Viagra and Sildenafil contain the same active ingredient (Sildenafil Citrate). Spedra and Levitra are two other ED drugs also available in the UK.
Some men may also find that counselling is effective in treating their ED. For men whose erectile dysfunction is mainly down to nerves, or some other form of anxiety, psychologists can assist in developing techniques to better cope with situations where stress occurs. This, in turn, can help improve your sexual performance.
Lifestyle changes can also help some men to overcome erectile dysfunction symptoms. Obesity and alcohol are both factors in erectile dysfunction, and decreasing your alcohol intake, and exercising more, can have a positive impact on your ability to get and maintain an erection.
Generic Cialis
Tadalafil which is the active ingredient in Cialis is now available generically. In 2017, the patent for the exclusive manufacturer of this drug expired, and so Lilly was no longer the only company able to market this medication. When a patent expires, prices will often drop drastically, making medications more affordable for patients and the NHS.
'Generic Cialis' in the UK, is medically equivalent to Cialis and contains Tadalafil, the same ingredient. It is Tadalafil which works to increase blood flow to the penis to help achieve an erection.
Misuse of Cialis
Cialis should be taken for therapeutic purposes only. Misuse of prescription medication can result in serious side effects. The 'recreational' use of Cialis to enhance sexual performance when you are already able to achieve a sufficient erection, should be avoided. If you are usually able to obtain an erection, you are more likely to suffer from a prolonged erection after taking ED medication. Prolonged erections require you to seek medical help immediately.
Supply of Cialis and any prescription-only medicine is for personal use only, and should not be shared. Take Cialis as directed, and avoid any advice encountered in forums about combination use.
Cialis Myths
There is often misinformation online and in forums about sexual health and ED treatments. it’s important to establish the facts, so you can safely use the medication you are prescribed.
There are a number of misconceptions surrounding Cialis. These myths and misconceptions can lead to health issues. To help establish facts and bust the myths, here are some important things to remember.
- It can help men to achieve and maintain an erection. It DOES NOT, however, increase your sex drive.
- It DOES NOT work immediately and may not even work the first time you take it. It will take 30-60 minutes until the drug has been absorbed into your system. If it does not work, doctors advise taking on 3-4 different occasions, before giving up.
- It DOES NOT give you an erection for hours on end. You should get an erection in the presence of a sexual stimulus If you do get a prolonged erection, seek medical help. This can be dangerous.

How to avoid Cialis side effects
While it’s not possible to guarantee that you will avoid side effects of any drug, there are some basic measure you can take to minimise the risk of encountering them.
When taking Cialis you should make sure other medication you are taking does not interact. As mentioned previously, heart medicines like alpha-blockers and nitrate-based medications can significantly, and dangerously increase the risk of side effects. You should also read the label of any new medication you are taking to check which other drugs they interact with.
In addition to prescription medication, recreational drugs can also increase the risk of side effects. Drugs which are commonly known as ‘Poppers’, contain nitrates. It is these nitrates which can interact dangerously in your system and can lead to severe drops in blood pressure.
