Cialis – The Cure for ED?

Cialis is the trade name for Tadalfil, a pill used to treat Erectile Dysfunction or ED. This is a physical disorder, which prevents the penis from gaining or maintaining an erection due to physical or psychological issues. An example of a physical issue is when the patient has problems with his heart or circulation, causing lack of blood flow to the penis and reducing the chances of an erection. An example of a psychological issue is a lack of sexual arousal. In most cases, Cialis provides a common remedy for ED.

Apart from the treatment of ED, Cialis was recently approved to treat other conditions, such as pulmonary arterial hypertension. It is sold in tablet form, in doses of 5, 10 and 20 milligrams. When dealing with pulmonary arterial hypertension, Cialis has an approved dosage of 40 milligrams. When marketed for this purpose, the drug will be known as Adcirca.

In as little as half an hour, most patients can be ready for sexual intercourse when they use Cialis. The drug is popular for its long lasting effects, up to 36 hours in some cases. It works by stopping an enzyme called PD5, which sends signals to the brain to regulate blood flow entering the penis. Without this enzyme, the flow of blood will be constant and an erection will be achieved and maintained for as long as the dose is active.

As with any drug, Cialis has its side effects. The most common being a stuffy or runny nose, flushes, muscle pains, back pain, indigestion and headache. The symptoms usually subside after a couple of hours, though the body pains can appear up to half a day to a day after ingesting the drug. All side effects normally vanish within two days.
