Generic Cialis is a type of drug known as a PDE-5 inhibitor which is used to treat male impotence or erectile dysfunction. Generic Cialis or Tadalafil is a relatively new drug that is currently being used to treat male impotence.

How Does It Work

Generic Cialis works in the same way as Viagra, by blocking the enzyme called PDE-5 which stands for phosphodiesterase-5. This relaxes and widens the smooth muscles within the penis which increases blood flow to the area. This is how the drug can help you achieve an erection more quickly and easily.

Standard Dosages

You should never take more than 20 mg of Generic Cialis per day. The standard dosage given to men with erectile dysfunction during clinical trials was 10mg to 20 mg.

The Drug’s Effects

Generic Cialis can work as quickly as 16 minutes after ingestion, and the effects can last up to 24 hours! On the other hand, Viagra takes up to 1 hour to take effect and lasts no more than 4 hours. If you suffer from erectile dysfunction and take a Generic Cialis pill every other day, the substance will begin to build up in your body. Therefore, you can enjoy sex whenever you wish without fear of erection problems, as long as you give yourself enough rest time in between.

Possible Side Effects

The most common side effects of Generic Cialis are muscle pain, back pain, headaches and dyspepsia or an upset stomach after eating. However, you can reduce these side effects by lowering your dosage of the drug. Although cardiovascular side effects are common with most erectile dysfunction drugs, early tests reveal that Generic Cialis doesn’t affect blood pressure in the same way. However, you are more likely to experience side effects if you are older than 65. Read the rest of this entry »
