Where to Buy Cialis Online — telemedicine evaluation & patient education
Introduction
Cialis (tadalafil) is a long-acting treatment for erectile dysfunction and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Because of its extended duration—up to 36 hours—it is widely known as “the weekend pill.”
Cialis provides more flexibility and spontaneity compared to short-acting ED treatments. Its therapeutic effects extend beyond sexual function, as tadalafil also relaxes smooth muscle in the prostate and bladder, improving urinary symptoms.
Mechanism of Action
Like other PDE5 inhibitors, Cialis enhances the natural nitric oxide–cGMP pathway responsible for vasodilation in penile tissue. What sets tadalafil apart is its exceptionally long half-life of 17.5 hours.
This allows the medication to remain active much longer, supporting erectile function through an extended window rather than at a single moment. It also improves pelvic blood flow and smooth muscle relaxation in urinary passages.
Dosage
Cialis can be taken in two ways:
As-needed dosing:
10 mg 30–45 minutes before sexual activity, adjustable to Cialis 20 mg or 5 mg.Daily dosing:
2.5–5 mg once per day, offering continuous support for men with frequent sexual activity or those treating BPH.
Food does not significantly affect absorption, and alcohol should be used moderately. Cialis should not be mixed with nitrates.
Benefits
Cialis provides prolonged erectile support and improved urinary flow. Men report increased spontaneity, less pressure to “time” intimacy, and enhanced confidence. Its dual benefit makes it suitable for older men who struggle with both urinary symptoms and sexual function.
Side Effects
Typical side effects include back pain, muscle aches, flushing, headache, and nasal congestion. These are generally mild and resolve within 24 hours. Severe reactions such as chest pain, vision loss, or prolonged erection require immediate medical help.
