Important Considerations:
Inform your doctor about all medications you are currently using, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements, before starting Tadalafil. Tadalafil can interact with certain medications, particularly nitrates used to treat chest pain. Combining them can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Individuals with heart problems, liver disease, or kidney disease should discuss Tadalafil use with their physician before taking it. Alcohol consumption can increase the risk of side effects. Limit alcohol intake while taking Tadalafil. If you experience any serious or persistent side effects, stop taking Tadalafil and seek medical attention immediately.
