Tadalafil 20mg Tablets
- An oral tadalafil treatment option for erectile dysfunction available through provider-guided care.
- Treatment requires review by a licensed healthcare provider and a prescription when clinically appropriate.
Tadalafil is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor used to treat erectile dysfunction. It works by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation, helping support an erection when sexual stimulation is present.
Take tadalafil exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. For as-needed treatment of erectile dysfunction, the current prescribing information allows the dose to be increased from 10mg to 20mg based on individual efficacy and tolerability.
Common adverse reactions include headache, indigestion, back pain, muscle aches, nasal congestion, flushing, and pain in the extremities. Tadalafil also has important cardiovascular and drug-interaction warnings that should be reviewed before treatment.
Your healthcare provider determines whether tadalafil 20mg is appropriate for you after considering your health history, current medications, cardiovascular factors, and individual treatment needs.
