Tadalafil the Latest Impotence Treatment Medication

Cialis (tadalafil) – The latest impotence treatment

When a man can not get an erection hard enough to have sex or can not keep an erection long enough to finish sex, it is known as erectile dysfunction or impotence. This problem can occur at any age, but is more common in men above the age of 65. If you have problems in getting an erection, do not worry. Impotence treatment is now at hand. The latest impotence treatment is Cialis.

About Cialis

Cialis is an impotence treatment pill to be taken orally. It works by increasing blood flow into the penis after some sort of sexual stimulation. Cialis does this by relaxing the muscles and increasing blood flow to particular areas of the body. This helps you to achieve and maintain an erection. Cialis is a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor and all impotence treatments belonging to this category work in the same way. The only difference in them is their active ingredients and the dosage they come in. Some other impotence treatments in the same class are Viagra and Levitra.

Who can take Cialis? – Basic eligibility to take Cialis

Cialis is not meant for everyone therefore it is only available on prescription. This impotence treatment should be taken under a doctor’s guidance only.

You should not take Cialis if you are taking a nitrate drug for chest pain or heart problems, including nitroglycerin. Taking Cialis impotence treatment with a nitrate medicine can cause serious decrease in blood pressure, and lead to fainting, stroke, or heart attack.

Sometimes a particular condition also makes it unsafe to take Cialis. Before taking Cialis, tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs, or if you have following conditions:

* heart disease or heart rhythm problems
* a recent history of a heart attack
* a recent history of stroke or congestive heart failure
* angina (chest pain)
* high or low blood pressure
* liver disease
* kidney disease (or if you are on dialysis)
* a blood cell disorder such as sickle cell anemia, multiple myeloma, or leukemia
* a bleeding disorder such as hemophilia
* a stomach ulcer
* retinitis pigmentosa (an inherited condition of the eye)
* a physical deformity of the penis (e.g. Peyronie’s disease)
* if your doctor has specifically told you not to have sex due to some condition

Do not take Cialis more than once a day. Allow 24 hours to pass between doses. The effects of Cialis last for 36 hours and it starts working in 30 minutes. Cialis can help you achieve an erection only if sexual stimulation occurs. An erection will not occur just by taking Cialis pill.

Side effects of Cialis

Some of the side effects of Cialis include:

* warmth or redness in your face, neck, or chest
* stuffy nose
* headache
* upset stomach
* back pain

This is not the complete list of Cialis side effects and others may occur. Tell your doctor about any unusual or bothersome side effect.

Contact your doctor or seek immediate medical attention if your erection is painful or lasts longer than 4 hours. This condition is known as priapism and if left untreated can cause permanent damage to the veins in penis.

Why men choose Cialis for impotence treatment?

Some men choose Cialis as their impotence treatment because it starts working in 30 minutes and its effects last for 36 hours. Therefore, they do not have to plan their sexual activity around the time of taking impotence treatment. Moreover, as Cialis is available in lower dosage form compared to Viagra, another impotence treatment, more men prefer to take it.
