CIALIS  (TADALAFIL):  Tadalafil is used to treat male sexual function problems (impotence or erectile dysfunction-ED). In combination with sexual stimulation, tadalafil works by increasing blood flow to the penis to help a man get and keep an erection. Tadalafil is also used to treat the symptoms of an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia-BPH). It helps to relieve symptoms of BPH such as difficulty in beginning the flow of urine, weak stream, and the need to urinate frequently or urgently (including during the middle of the night). Tadalafil is thought to work by relaxing the smooth muscle in the prostate and bladder. This drug does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases (such as HIV, hepatitis B, gonorrhea, syphilis). Practice "safe sex" such as using latex condoms. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details.   FDA Approval Date: 2003-11-21 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 5  ED Slight head aches 48hrs after taking 5mg, but the most unbearable cramps in my buttocks and legs. Certainly did the job! Ideally needs to be taken the day before but after 6 hours or so you get erection on demand, thicker, bigger, last like an 18yr old again, only down side is th emost amazing cramping pains in my buttocks and legs, so bad it stopped me sleeping, only eased by soaking in hot bathe for an hour or so, this lasts for three + days, other draw backs are monster erections at the slightest arousement for days after, watch the dose, I split a 20mg dose in half, at 6ft4'' and 250lb I could really have done with 5mg. All in all, excellent drug, expensive here in ik @ £32 for 4 tablets, would think twice about using again just because of the pain of the side effects. Not life threatening but certainly uncomfortable. M 46 30 days

 3  ED haven't really noticed any of the back pain that others are talking about. i do notice a slight flushing in the face (not as bad as viagra was) i too have anxiety related ED. before using this, if i met a new girl i couldn't have sex with her AT ALL. i just couldn't get an erection hard enough for penetration. talk about embarrassing and frustrating. this seems to work well. although, sometimes i "lose" the erection midway through sex. having her on top can be painful maybe i'm taking the med too soon? if anyone has any suggestions please let me know!

 3  Prostate Cancer Robotic removal First fee days no problems and no side effects. After the first full week of 5MG /D leg aches from butt to ankles were terrible. Mild headaches, nosal congestion mild, and some flushing shortly after AM dosage. Prostate removed robotically 4/7/11 due to cancer (got it all). By 5/ 21/11released to normal activity. Started out doing a good job increasing blood flow to penis Doctor recommended the drug to help improve surgical damage to blood vessels and nerves. On a scale 0-4, my erections are about 2.0 to 3.0. Orgasms have been excellent. Hoping a dosage change may work and reduce the ocurrence of aches and pain. Consult your doctor before changing any dosages. Currently stopped taking for 3 days to allow aches to subside, and discuss with urologist options which may help side effects. I will continue taking 5 MG/D only to improve the blood flow, in hopes of repairing surgical damage and returning to a more nature response to stimulation. M 51 10 days

 5  ED Most often dyspepsia sometimes muscular aches. Occasional facial flushing. Side effects have reduced in severity over time. 2 X 20mg per week were prescribed but this was too much (side effects seemed worse) I will ask Doc about a lower dose twice a week as I would like to spread the benefit right through the week rather than 3 days after taking the 20mg dose M 65 5 months

 3  erectile dysfunction This is the second time I have tried Cialis. Last time was about 12 months ago and I got terrible pains in my legs and buttocks. I asked the doctor and he said it couldn't be the Cialis. This time I took 2 x 5mg tablets on Monday, then one on Tuesday. I was going to try the 5mg per day and see the results however when I woke up Wednesday morning I had terrible pains in my legs so I didn't take any more. These pains continued all day and became very severe when I went to bed, I guess part of that is you don't have anything else happening so it is all you think about. Anyway I have decided to try it again after reading the various comments. This time I'm going with the larger dose less often. I am going to try 10mg every 3 days and see what if any changes there are to the side effect of the legs. Will report back in a couple of weeks, because I am still suffering with the leg pains and don't feel too keen at the moment. Erection seemed good but unable to test as wife hurt back. M 63 2 days

 1   Severe bilateral thoraco-lumbar pain. So bad thought it could be kidney stone, or worse - but it is not. Recent Xrays revealed not enough factors to account for such pain. Nsaids limited or no value. Pain bad enough to make me stop in tracks and try hard not to fall down. Take Cialis only infrequently - 5-6x/yr. Other (also infrequent) times, I take Viagra. Past three times in a row now show Cialis is the culprit as time frame and site/nature of symptoms match. This is my day off, but can hardly move with severe pain, and don't know if I can go to work tomorrow. If you don't have side effects, Cialis does improve performance as advertised. Be aware, however, if initially you have little or no side effect, as they can apparently start down the line. Severe thoraco-lumbar symptom alone is enough to discourage any future use, and combined with other side effect risks, one must think long and hard if this particular solution is worth it. Be careful. M 65 3 years

 2  mild ED Severe upper and lower back pain - now in the third day. Eye pressure, headache and mild flu symptoms. First ever experience with this type of drug. Doctor gave me a sample. Worked fine sexually, but the side effects are simply not worth it. I will try Viagra and hope the short period of potency means short side effects. M 52 1 days

 3  Improve Sexual Experience Extreme lower back pain and cramping in buttocks and thighs. Pain started 24hrs. after taking pill and lasted for 2 days. Wanted to like it. Sex was good, but the pain was not worth it. If I could find a way to eliminate the pain I would continue to use it. M 50 1 days

 1  ED My side effects were mainly muscle related. I did get the flushing in my face and headache every time I took Cialis but they were tolerable compared to the intense pain to muscles throughout my body. For some reason I just did not connect the pain with the Cialis, or I just did not want to believe it. At this point I was suicidal. I went to two different hospitals and had complete physical check-ups including, urine and blood work, including checking for HIV. Everything checked out OK, the doctors could find nothing wrong with me. It was only then that I connected the Cialis with my body pain and I stopped taking it. It took weeks for my body to return to normal and I am so glad I am OK. I would advice anyone to really be careful taking Cialis, sex is great but not in my humble opinion, worth the trauma I went through. M 59 1 years

 5  ED Initially, back ache, nasal conjestion, muscle aches I started with a 5mg/day dose. WAY TOO MUCH! It adds up in your body. Drug did its assignment correctly but muscle aches were terrible. Tried 15mg every 96 hours (4 days) and things improved greatly. The only side effects I now have are a stuffy nose and low blood pressure for 4 days (a plus+). I believe a person's body adjusts to this med. Don't go too heavy, too often and just take your time figuring out what works for you. I've settled on 15mg/96 hours after 6 months of trial and error. I now have zero aches and pains and feel like I'm 18 again..week after week, day after day! I believe you'll find the side effects will diminish or subside completely with a single dose once or twice a week rather that 5 or 10mg per day. It justs takes time for your body to adjust. Good luck to you! M 64 6 months

 2  ED It took me a while to figure out that the side effects were attributable to the Cialis. I LOVE this drug. It exceeds by far the results with Viagra,But, as others are saying, it is NOT worth tha pain that follows a couple days later and lasts for a couple of days. What I am trying to find out is if anyone who has experienced the painful (delayed) side effects with the regular pill, has tried the daily dosage pill. Are you still plagued with the side effects ?? Can the manufacturers engineer out this side effect? M 59 10 times

 3  ED Excrutiating back pain in kidney area, pulsing headache within two hours of taking pill. Backache starts the next day, clearly not worth the side effects. Too bad the pain follows the pleasure, the drug does it's job for ED, but nothing is worth that back ache. M 51 2 weeks

 1  ed Terrible back , butt & leg pain after 2nd day.Lsted for at least 2 more days and sleepless nights. The sexual perfpomance aspect was great, but WOW! not worth the pain and inability to sleep. I have chronic back pain due to herniated disc but that pain is pale compared to this. Vicodin and Advil didn't even touch it. Cialis is not for me. M 48 1 days
