Cialis, containing tadalafil, comes in various dosages, typically ranging from 2.5mg to 20mg. The correct dosage depends entirely on individual factors and should always be determined by a healthcare professional.
Factors Influencing Dosage
- Your medical history: Pre-existing conditions like heart problems or liver/kidney disease influence the recommended dose. Current medications: Interactions with other drugs may necessitate adjustments. Individual response: Some men respond well to lower doses, while others may require higher ones. Treatment goal: Daily use for ED requires a different dosage than occasional use.
Never adjust your dosage without consulting your doctor. Taking more than the prescribed amount won’t necessarily improve results and can increase the risk of side effects.
Common Dosages and Uses
5mg and 10mg: Frequently prescribed for daily use to maintain erectile function. 10mg and 20mg: Typically used as needed, before anticipated sexual activity. 2.5mg: Often a starting dose for men with certain medical conditions or those taking other medications.
Remember, Cialis is not a performance enhancer. It aids in achieving and maintaining an erection but does not increase libido.
Side Effects
Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and muscle aches. Serious side effects are rare but include vision changes and hearing loss. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience these.
