Cialis is a very important drug for not only South Africa, but also for the entire world. This drug is used to treat erectile dysfunction in males. Erectile dysfunction is the inability for a male to obtain/achieve an erection. As you can imagine, this can lead to many mental health issues for not only the male, but also for the female in the relationship. A health sex life is very important to maintaining good mental and physical health.
The active ingredient in Cialis is called Tadalafil.
This drug was first created by researchers aimed at treating high blood pressure. Tadalafil was approved by the FDA in the United States in 2003 as a treatment option for erectile dysfunction. Cialis works by increasing blood flow to the male genitalia. It is important to note that Cialis does not lead to sexual arousal or stimulation. In order for Cialis to work efficiently, the male must already be sexually stimulated. Cialis can also be used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension and benign prostatic hyperplasia. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a condition in which the prostate gland becomes enlarged which can cause problems with urination. As mentioned previously, Cialis works by allowing more blood flow to the penis. A penile erection occurs when blood fills the spongy tissue in the penis. During an erection, the blood vessels that remove blood from the penis will contract this basically allows blood to stay accumulated which forms an erection.
Cialis comes in tablets of 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg doses.
Cialis should not be taken more than once every twenty-four hours. It is important to take Cialis roughly thirty minutes prior to sexual activity. This gives the drug plenty of time to take full effect. Cialis should not be used by anyone under eighteen years old.
There are some side effects that can come with taking Cialis.
The most common side effects are dizziness, nausea, numbness or tingling in the extremities, facial flushing, and diarrhea. For an erection lasting long than four hours, it’s important to seek medical attention immediately. This condition is called priapism and can cause permanent damage to the penis if not treated. Cialis should not be taken by people with certain conditions such as heart disease. It’s important to speak to your physician regarding any medical conditions that might interact with Cialis.
It’s also important to review your current medications with your physician as there can be serious side effects when mixed with other drugs. Cialis should not be taken with alcohol as this can lead to serious side effects that haven’t been very well documented. If you are serious about seeking help for erectile dysfunction, it is recommended to thoroughly review this with your physician to determine if Cialis is the right fit for you.
As you can tell, Cialis can help save many couples across South Africa and allow them to have a health sexual life. This in turn can help create positive mental health. This can also reduce the amount of money spent each year on mental health issues.
