Here's a breakdown of how to take each ED medication we offer:
Tadalafil Daily (2.5mg / 5mg)
How to Take:
Take once daily, at the same time each day
Swallow whole with water, with or without food
Do not split or crush the tablet
Do not take more than one dose per day
Tips for Best Results:
✅ Be consistent – same time daily
✅ Food doesn’t affect absorption
✅ Limit alcohol – excess can increase dizziness/low blood pressure
✅ Builds up in your system – may take 4–5 days to notice full effect
What to Avoid:
❌ Nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin) – can dangerously lower blood pressure
❌ Grapefruit or grapefruit juice – may raise risk of side effects
❌ Extra doses – won’t help and can be harmful
Missed a Dose?
Take it as soon as you remember. If it’s close to your next dose, skip the missed one. Never double up.
Seek Immediate Help If:
You experience chest pain, sudden vision loss, or an erection lasting more than 4 hours.
How do I take 10mg or 20mg Tadalafil?
Tadalafil 10mg and 20mg are typically used as needed, rather than daily.
✅ How to Take It:
Take 1 tablet at least 30–60 minutes before sexual activity
Can be taken with or without food
Do not take more than one dose in a 24-hour period
Swallow the tablet whole with water – do not split or crush
🕒 How Long Does It Last?
A single dose can provide effectiveness for up to 36 hours
You do not need to time it exactly before intercourse due to its long window of effectiveness
⚠️ What to Avoid:
❌ Do not take with nitrates – this combination can cause a serious drop in blood pressure
❌ Avoid heavy alcohol use – it may increase the risk of side effects like dizziness or low blood pressure
❌ Do not take more than once per day
