1.Nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate): Cialis and nitrates both lower blood pressure. Taking them together can cause a significant and potentially life-threatening drop in blood pressure (hypotension), leading to dizziness, fainting, or even heart attack or stroke. It is contraindicated to use Cialis with nitrates or recreational "poppers" (amyl nitrites).
2.Alpha-blockers (e.g., prazosin, terazosin, tamsulosin): Both Cialis and alpha-blockers relax blood vessels, which can lead to excessive blood pressure reduction when used together. This may result in dizziness, fainting, or orthostatic hypotension (a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing). If needed, your doctor may adjust the dosage or recommend spacing the medications.
3.Other antihypertensive drugs (e.g., atenolol, propranolol, enalapril, lisinopril): Cialis can enhance the blood-pressure-lowering effects of these medications. While this interaction is usually less severe than with nitrates or alpha-blockers, it can still cause dizziness or fainting in sensitive individuals. Close monitoring of blood pressure is recommended.

Cialis, or the generic name of the drug, is one of the most popular erectile dysfunction (ED) medicines available.

It has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of ED and has been shown to help men achieve and maintain a firm erection during sexual activity.
It is a generic version of Cialis, which means that it is approved by the FDA to treat ED. The active ingredient of Cialis, Tadalafil, is a phosphodiesterase inhibitor that is part of the PDE-5 enzyme, which is the blood flow to the penis, helping to achieve and maintain an erection. In addition, men who have high blood pressure or heart failure may be able to achieve and maintain a firm erection for up to 36 hours after taking Cialis.
Cialis is an erectile dysfunction drug that works by increasing blood flow to the penis. This helps men achieve and maintain an erection during sexual stimulation. Tadalafil, on the other hand, is a more potent PDE-5 inhibitor that works by relaxing the blood vessels and enhancing blood flow to the penis.
Tadalafil is also used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs) in patients who suffer from angina pectoris (chest pain).
Cialis is typically taken once a day, about 36 hours after taking the medication. It is important to note that Cialis may only work for up to 36 hours, meaning that the medication may not be fully effective at this time.
The typical dosage of Cialis is one tablet of 20 mg taken once a day for up to 36 hours, or one tablet of 30 mg taken once a day for up to 36 hours. The doctor may adjust the dosage based on individual needs and response to the medication.
If you miss a dose of Cialis, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it’s almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for the missed one.
Nitrate medications are not recommended for taking Cialis, as they can cause side effects like chest pain or flushing, which are not suitable for everyone. If you are using nitrates, talk to your doctor before taking Cialis if you have a history of heart disease or stroke. You can also take Cialis if you have a history of high or low blood pressure.
The most common side effects of Cialis are headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and visual changes. However, these side effects are usually mild and temporary, and they can resolve on their own or be temporary. If you experience any severe side effects, like an erection lasting more than four hours or difficulty achieving orgasm, stop taking Cialis and contact your doctor immediately.
