Common Use

Cialis Soft improves erections, enabling successful sexual intercourse. If sexual arousal is present, effects can be felt within 16 minutes and last for 36 hours, allowing flexibility in timing for multiple attempts.

Dosage and Direction

Take orally once a day, with or without food. The recommended dose is 20 mg, taken at least 16 minutes before sexual activity.

Precautions

Avoid using Cialis with grapefruit juice, alcohol, or tobacco, as this may cause NAION (sudden vision loss). Inform your doctor if you have an abnormal penis or a history of heart disease, diabetes, or kidney failure.

Contraindications

Cialis is contraindicated for those using organic nitrates, which may enhance hypotensive effects.

Possible Side Effects

Common side effects include:

• Facial flushing
• Headaches
• Stomach upset
• Diarrhea
• Flu-like symptoms and nausea

Rare effects may include low blood pressure, blurred vision, and priapism (painful erections over 6 hours). Seek medical help if an erection lasts longer than 4 hours.

Drug Interactions

Avoid taking Cialis with organic nitrates (e.g., Nitroglycerin) due to the risk of severe hypotension. Inform your doctor if you take other medications that may affect Cialis levels.

Missed Dose

Missed doses are not a concern as Cialis is taken as needed for erectile dysfunction.

Overdose

Overdose may cause symptoms similar to side effects. Seek medical help if you suspect an overdose.

Storage

Store at room temperature, away from moisture, sunlight, children, and pets in a tight container.
