Cialis is a prescription medication that is used in the treatment of erectile dysfunction and symptoms of benign prostatic hypertrophy (which is an enlarged prostate). Cialis was discovered by Glaxo Wellcome (now GlaxoSmithKline) under a partnership between Glaxo and ICOS to develop new drugs that began in August 1991. The medication is usually taken once per day and it can be taken with or without food. Cialis tablets, in 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg doses, are yellow, film-coated, and almond-shaped. You should not break or split a tablet or swallow it whole. Cialis contains tadalafil and you should not take Cialis if you take other medicines to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension, such as riociguat (Adempas). If you are taking the medicine for erectile dysfunction, take this medicine just before sexual activity but not more than once per day. Cialis can help achieve an erection when sexual stimulation occurs but an erection won’t occur just by taking a pill. During sexual activity, if you become dizzy, nauseated, have chest pain, numbness, or tingling in your chest, arms, neck, or jaw – stop and call your doctor right away. You could be having a serious side effect.
Here are some of the common side effects of Cialis:
– headache;
– diarrhea;
– sinus pain, sore throat; or
– muscle pain.
You should talk to your doctor about these other medical conditions before you begin to take Cialis:
– heart disease, heart rhythm problems, or coronary artery disease
– a recent heart attack within the past 90 days
– a recent history (past 6 months) of a stroke, or congestive heart failure;
– angina (chest pain), high or low blood pressure
– liver or kidney disease (including dialysis patients);
– blood cell disorders 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 (such as Peyronie’s disease)
– Or if you have been told you should not have sexual intercourse for health reasons.
Cialis can also decrease blood flow to the optic nerve of the eye which can cause sudden vision loss. This has occurred in a small number of people that take Cialis, most of whom also had diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or certain pre-existing eye conditions. It has also caused sudden vision loss in those who smoke or those who were over 50 years old. It is not clear whether Cialis is the actual cause of the sudden vision loss.
The recommended way to obtain Cialis in Australia is to see a doctor. He will diagnose your condition and make sure that you don’t have any medical conditions that can cause complications with taking Cialis. After you see the doctor, he will write you a prescription. You may then go to the pharmacy (or chemist) of your choice to obtain your prescription of Cialis.
There are also websites that sell Cialis online without a prescription, but these websites are not recommended. Buying Cialis (or any prescription drug) from a website without a prescription from a doctor can have negative effects on one’s health. The best way to obtain Cialis is to talk to your doctor and to get a prescription from a trustworthy source.
