Tadalafil

What is Tadalafil?

Tadalafil, popularly known as the “weekend pill” is a prescription only drug used to treat Erectile dysfunction (ED). It is part of a group of drugs called phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors, they work by relaxing the muscles around the arteries that supply the penis. This allows more blood to flow to the penis and allows easier and firmer erections when sexually aroused.

Tadalafil is the longest acting ED drug of its kind with it staying active in your bloodstream for 36 hours. and allows for greater spontaneity in your sex life.

Tadalafil is the active ingredient in the branded medication Cialis, it works by inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase-5 and hence relaxes the smooth muscles around the blood vessels supplying the penis. This allows more blood to flow to the penis and allows for a stronger, easier erection that lasts long enough to enjoy good sex.

Tadalafil is also sold in generic Tadalafil tablets which are equally as medically effective, have the same side effect profile and the same timeframe of action, however the generic Tadalafil tablets are cheaper than Cialis tablets of the same dose due to not being branded.

How does Tadalafil work?

Tadalafil tablets work by relaxing the muscles around the blood vessels which supply the penis. They do this by inhibiting an enzyme called phosphodiesterase-5. The relaxation of these muscles allows increased blood to flow to the penis and allows for an easier spontaneous erection when aroused.

How to take Tadalafil

The tadalafil 10mg tablet or 20mg tablet can be taken 30 minutes before planned sexual activity and you can expect the effects to last for the next 36 hours. This does not mean that you will have a sustained erection for that time period, but that you will have more spontaneous erections when sexually aroused.

Tadalafil can be taken with or without food, but preferably should be swallowed whole with a glass of water.

Try not to take tablet Tadalafil with alcohol as that can increase the risk of side effects.

Who should not use Tadalafil?

Tadalafil may not suitable for everyone, this medication should not be used or used in caution in individuals with certain medical conditions or taking specific other medicines.  These instances include:

• People with severe kidney or liver impairments which can cause problems with tadalafil excretion and lead to toxic buildups.
• People with allergic reactions to Tadalafil. 

How long does Tadalafil last?

Tadalafil stays active in the body for 36 hours, and is hence sometimes called the weekend pill, due to one pill’s effects of allowing you a spontaneous erection, whenever aroused, during the 36 hour time frame. The erection of course lasts only for a long enough time for you to enjoy good sex before allowing the penis to return to its normal state.

• Sildenafil (Viagra)

Also, a PDE-5 enzyme inhibitor that increases blood flow to the penis and allows for more spontaneous erections. It has a shorter duration of action than Tadalafil, around 4-6 hours.

• Vardenafil (Levitra)

Similar to sildenafil in mechanism of action and timeframe of activity

• Avanafil (Stendra)

Another PDE 5 enzyme inhibitor which gets active very quickly (within 15 minutes), but lasts for only 6 hours.
