What is Cialis?

Cialis is a prescription medication from the phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor drug class and is used to treat erectile dysfunction and the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate). Cialis works by relaxing smooth muscles in blood vessels, allowing for increased blood flow that helps some men achieve an erection. Read more about how Cialis works.

How Long Does Cialis Last?

While everyone's experiences vary, you can generally take Cialis 30 minutes prior to sexual activity. Depending on your prescription, you may also be able to take Cialis every 24 hours, allowing you to engage in sexual activity any time between doses. You can check out this blog post for more information on how long it takes Cialis to work. Cialis lasts longer than other ED drugs and can be effective for up to 36 hours.

Directions, Cautions, and Side Effects

Always follow your doctor’s instructions when using Cialis. Never adjust your dosage without consulting a healthcare provider. Read more about how much Cialis you can take.

Cialis for Use as Needed:

  • Can be taken with or without food.
  • The typical starting dose is 10 mg, taken before sexual activity.
  • Depending on effectiveness and side effects, your doctor may adjust the dose to 5 mg or 20 mg.
  • Do not take more than once per day.
  • Cialis may remain effective for up to 36 hours, earning it the nickname “the weekend pill.”

  • Designed for once-daily dosing, taken at the same time each day, regardless of sexual activity.
  • The starting dose is usually 2.5 mg, which may be increased to 5 mg if needed.
  • Offers continuous support for spontaneous intimacy without the need to plan ahead.

Cautions

Cialis is a prescription medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). It is not intended for recreational use and will not enhance sexual performance in men who do not have ED.

Do Not Use Cialis If You Take:

  • Nitrate medications for chest pain or heart conditions (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate, isosorbide mononitrate, or recreational “poppers” containing amyl nitrate)
  • Riociguat, a medication for pulmonary arterial hypertension
  • Taking Cialis with these medications can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.

Before Starting Cialis:

Your doctor may perform a heart assessment to ensure sexual activity is safe for you. Make sure to share your full medical history, especially if you have or have had:

  • Heart disease, chest pain (angina), or irregular heartbeat
  • Heart attack or stroke
  • High or low blood pressure
  • Liver or kidney problems
  • Vision issues or conditions like retinitis pigmentosa
  • Bleeding disorders or stomach ulcers
  • Peyronie’s disease (a condition causing penile curvature)
  • Blood disorders such as sickle cell anemia, multiple myeloma, or leukemia
  • A prior erection lasting longer than 4 hours
  • Any other condition where sexual activity is not medically advised

Possible Side Effects of Cialis

Like all medications, Cialis may cause side effects. Most are mild and temporary, but some can be serious.

Common Side Effects:

  • Headache
  • Flushing of the face or neck
  • Muscle aches, especially in the back, arms, or legs
  • Stuffy or runny nose
  • Nausea or indigestion

These usually resolve on their own as your body adjusts to the medication.

Serious Side Effects:

  • Feeling light-headed or fainting
  • Chest pain, or pain spreading to the jaw or shoulder
  • Nausea, sweating, or signs of a heart attack
  • An erection lasting more than 4 hours (priapism)
  • Vision changes or sudden vision loss
  • Hearing problems or ringing in the ears
  • Shortness of breath

If you experience chest pain, dizziness, or nausea during sexual activity, seek immediate medical attention.

FAQs

How long does Cialis take to work?

Cialis takes an average of two hours to reach peak concentration. However, Cialis may work in as quickly as 30 minutes. Taking tadalafil at least half an hour before sexual activity helps ensure this ED medication works in time.

How long does Cialis last?

The benefits of Cialis last the longest compared to all the ED drugs on the market. When taken properly, as-needed Cialis can last up to 36 hours.

Is Cialis available over the counter?

No, generic tadalafil and brand-name Cialis require a valid prescription.

Should I take Cialis with or without food?

Cialis may be taken with or without food. Unlike some other PDE5 inhibitors, the safety and efficacy of Cialis are not affected by eating before dosing. However, grapefruit (and grapefruit products) may affect how your body processes tadalafil and increase the risk of side effects. As a result, most food is allowed, but you may need to avoid grapefruit. Learn more about the relationship between Cialis and food.

How do I order Cialis from an online pharmacy?

For more information, visit our Order Process page or call our Care Team 7 days a week at 1-877-385-5040.

How much does shipping cost?

Can I drink alcohol while taking Cialis?

Generally, yes, you can. Moderate drinking should not interfere with this ED drug’s efficacy. However, alcohol and tadalafil are both mild vasodilators, meaning you may experience low blood pressure if you take them together. This may cause dizziness and fainting during sexual activity, so it is important to avoid excessive drinking.

Is it safe to buy Cialis from an online pharmacy?

Our online pharmacy offers approved Cialis in both its branded and generic forms. Your prescription will be filled by reputable pharmacies and fulfillment centers worldwide to help you save on costs without sacrificing effectiveness and safety.

Why is Cialis cheaper from Canada than the United States?

Countries like Canada have governmental regulations that prevent drug prices from soaring, keeping costs as affordable and accessible as possible. By ordering your medication from an online Canadian pharmacy like RxConnected, you can take advantage of significantly lower prices.

Why can’t I drink grapefruit juice while taking Cialis?

Foods and beverages that contain grapefruit may slow the body’s metabolism of tadalafil, leading to increased levels of Cialis in your bloodstream. A tadalafil buildup may cause several complications, including a painful condition called priapism.

How much does generic Cialis cost at an online pharmacy?

At RxConnected, we offer generic Cialis to help you save. The cost of generic Cialis will depend on the dosage strength and quantity. As prices tend to fluctuate with the market, check our product page for the latest price of generic Cialis. Going generic is a great way to save, as generic drugs are almost always significantly cheaper than their brand-name counterparts.

How competitive are your prices for Cialis?

The Cialis that we carry is priced with our customers in mind. Long-term treatment with Cialis, whether for ED or BPH, can be costly. We offer the best prices on the market.

Why is generic tadalafil so much cheaper? Is it effective and safe?

Generic tadalafil is considerably more affordable because its price does not have to account for the money spent on research and development (like a brand-name drug would). Additionally, we have priced it in such a way that it’s as accessible as possible. Tadalafil is just as safe and effective as brand-name Cialis.

How does Cialis compare against other popular ED drugs?

Many men prefer taking tadalafil over other PDE5 inhibitors because Cialis offers flexible dosing options. Daily dosing may be prescribed for treating ED and BPH, and this dosing method allows spontaneous sexual activity because you will maintain a consistent level of tadalafil in your blood. As-needed dosing gives men the option of taking a tablet only before sex. Cialis also works quickly in as little as 30 minutes and lasts for up to 36 hours, longer than any other ED drug available.

Can women use Cialis?

No. Unfortunately, Cialis is not approved for use by women. Sexual dysfunction affects women differently from men, so it is important for women to seek the appropriate treatment.

Why is Cialis prescribed?

Cialis helps men with erectile dysfunction achieve and sustain an erection. It is one of several drugs that may be prescribed to treat erectile dysfunction.

What does Cialis react with?

Drug interactions are possible with any medication. Make sure you speak to your doctor about any possible interactions with medications that you're currently taking or any that you're planning on taking. This includes supplements, OTC drugs, and vitamins. Check out this article for more information on taking Cialis with food.

Is there generic Cialis?

Yes, generic Cialis is called tadalafil. You can also buy generic Cialis online from Canadian pharmacies, offering steep savings when compared with local prices.

What does Cialis do to the body?

Cialis blocks an enzyme called PDE5. This allows muscles in the walls of blood vessels to relax, increasing the blood flow that’s required to achieve and sustain an erection.

Should I take Cialis instead of Viagra?

Cialis and Viagra are both PDE5 inhibitors used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. Advantages of taking Cialis include:

  • Can be taken once daily at a low dose (2.5-5 mg/day)
  • A single dose of Cialis can last up to 36 hours. This allows for more spontaneity than Viagra and other erectile dysfunction drugs

How many times a day can I take Cialis?

Cialis should not be taken more than once daily. A 10 mg or 20 mg dose should be taken 30 minutes before sexual activity and can remain effective for up to 36 hours. If you take a 2.5 mg or 5 mg dose, take it once daily at the same time.

Will Cialis affect my blood pressure?

Cialis can lower your blood pressure. Men who currently have low or high blood pressure should consult their doctor before taking Cialis. If you use nitrate drugs to treat chest pain, taking Cialis can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.

How does Cialis for Daily Use work?

Cialis for Daily Use is a good option for men who engage in sex more than twice weekly. By taking a lower dose of Cialis (2.5-5 mg) each day, the drug builds up in the body and allows for more spontaneous sexual activity. Take your dose at the same time each day, with or without food. It may take 4-5 days for Cialis for Daily Use to take effect.

What side effects can I expect?

The most common side effects of Cialis are headache, nausea, indigestion, pain (in the back, muscles, and extremities), flushing, and stuffy nose.

Contact your doctor immediately if you experience these more serious side effects: vision changes, light-headedness or fainting, painful or prolonged erection, and heart attack symptoms.
