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)

 4  ED then BPH Right hip cramp that I have not had before except on long drives and heartburn. Of course the mild headache and some tiredness that is uncommon. Never had much of a problem with ED but some, but BPH was a real issue. Cialis helped along with some other meds, now urinate like a 20 year old. M 66 10 days

 1  Erectile dysfunction I could not sleep for three days because the muscle pains in my legs hamstrings Cavs back neck and shoulders was terrible it hurts so bad you couldn't sleep had a headache for four days. The pains at night kept you up all night it was no sleeping for days. Even going to the bathroom afterwards it was painful because of the muscles in the buttocks and wet back being so sore The product work as far as what it was supposed to do took care of the problem but It had just way too many side effects M 50 1 days

 1  ED Debilitating back pain, leg soreness and joint pain. Aleve, Norco and Ibuprofen 800 did little to kill the pain. Not worth me taking to get an erection. On-call Urologist said I had a disc problem, even the pain started when I began Cialis. Right! M 55 5 days

 5  ED Severe muscle aches of the upper back between the shoulder blade areas with mediocre lower neck/shoulder soreness. This began on day 5 at 3am. I rolled my back muscles against an inside door frame to pseudo massage my back muscles gaining some relief and took an 800mg Ibuprofen (left over from an earlier shoulder surgery) that permitted me to sleep. I repeated this on day 6 and 7 and also took some Ibuprofen at work which relieved the pain a bit. I did not associate this ache with Cialis until I saw a TV commercial on day 7... Bingo! After seeing the commercial I also realized the connection to my between my abnormal irritability the last few days, my loss of interest in walking in the morning, in which I’ve been doing religiously for the past two months, and increased minor knee and shoulder pain. I had labrum shoulder reattachment surgery in February about 7 months ago; have had continuous subsiding pain since the surgery but it still exists; noticed an increase in pain on At this point knowing what I do about Cialis, and I feel my doctor should have clued me in, but then maybe this was a conscious decision on his part not to; this will be determined on my Wednesday doctor visit, I don’t have any issue continuing taking Cialis. I will hydrate more as one suggested, I will skip every other day until Wednesday’s doc visit. Check on a reduced rate such as 2.5mg. But honestly the benefits of having an erection far outweigh the realized negatives I’ve encountered. I say this with a clarifier being if I can get the symptoms under control. The old adage, No Pain… No Gain! I’m 58 and in a two year period my erections have subsided from being softer to almost non-existent and loss of interest. When I was younger I used to say that if I ever lost my ability to get erect my life was over. Well, I got to this point and mentally it was alright with me but like an epiphany one morning I came to the realization that this was not who I am or ever was and decided to see an endocrinologist. Blood test is being reviewed and any treatment will be discussed this Wednesday. In the interim the doc gave me the Cialis to try. I’m alive!!! Erections are NO problem. I’m harder and thicker, now I whisper sweetly to Big Mike… he immediately answers by standing at attention and presenting himself for action… I love my new volunteer army of one! I’ll report under the name… ummm… Happy Skippy! M 58 8 days

 1  BPH - Enlarged Prostate Severe Lower Back Pain Started an every-other day routine for a couple of weeks and felt stiff lower back. No betterment of urine flow. Then start 5mg every day. Lower back pain became worse. On 5th day of this daily dosage regiment my lower back pain became extreme, debilitating, and would not go away with Advil or Tylenol. Could not sleep/sit. Pain was very deep and unrelenting. Almost went to hospital but then read this web-site and saw similar reactions. So I quit Cialis. Pain persisted for 24 hours more and then started subsiding, but with periods of intensifying pain for 3 to 5 hours. Pretty frightening. About 36 hours after stopping Cialis the back pains started going away permanently. Whew! According to documentation from Cialis, back pain problems occur in 1 to 3% of users. I really doubt this. Am I one of the few? Anyway, this drug is not for me! M 69 7 days

 2  ED BPH At first it was like I was a teenager again. Aroused of just the thought of sex. Got half hard just shaking it after a piss. Night time visits went from 4 times a night down to one. Harder erections than I have experienced in years. Wow, my manhood was back full steam and I could again piss over a fence. I was so excited. Ouch, after the eighth day I noticed extreme pains in the back of the upper leg. I thought it was due to outside work. Ibuprofen and Tylenol wouldn't touch the pain. I couldn't sleep at all and even resorted to trying the floor. I suspected this pain may have been from the cialis but until I started reading these reviews wasn't sure . Another side affect I noticed was a period of irritability shortly after taking pill. Reminded me of when I drink too much caffeine. I don't know what I am going to do because I really liked the positive effects it has on ED and BPH but the pain is almost unbearable . I have a very high pain tolerance and this almost had me in tears. M 65 10 days

 1  ED ,BPH Works well for ED. I could not get erect due to heart medication and a spinal injury. However.........the back pain is debilitating. At first I blamed it on my spinal injury and operation (spinal laminectomony) but soon realized it was not the same type of pain that I usually get when that condition acts up on occasion. Also pain in hips and shoulders Thank goodness for search engines! I'm not going to take Cialis any more. There was very little said about the back pain in the info sheet. My GP was not very forthcoming about it either. M 70 40 days

 4  ED and BPH I have been taking Cialis on and off for over a year. I break a 20 mg tablet in half for a 10 mg dose. I usually only take one or two doses a week. Without a doubt it works as advertised for ED. I only experienced mild symptoms of headache and nasal stuffiness. Unfortunately, I took 3 doses over 5 days last week and developed horrible side effects. Extreme muscle pain in hips, legs and upper back. Severe neck pain and bilateral shoulder pain, fatigue, nausea, and lethargy and headache. It's been 4 days since I took last dose and symptoms are gradually improving. Still have mild neck pain and nausea. Also experienced tinnitus. I'm starting to think Cialis has been the cause of mild but persistent health problems this past year, including body aches, headaches and fatigue. I hope these symptoms disappear soon. Cialis is like any other drug...it has negative side-effects. It is not for everyone and should be taken carefully. Dosage seems to be important with Cialis. Take the smallest dosage possible and closely gauge your symptoms. I do not plan on taking Cialis again. The side effects are too scary and severe. I've always been fairly healthy and fit, but now I feel lousy and trepid. I suspect the symptoms will dissipate over time, but it will take a while. I've had to take flexeril and extra strength Tylenol to mitigate the symptoms with limited success. Be careful! M 54 1 years

 5  Boost with hard-to-please partner Regularly: stuffiness; light-headedness; flushing; sneezing; acid reflux; flatulence. Occasionaly: migraine; light sensitivity;tinnitis. Works best in alternation with Kamagra, or other generic Viagra. Stomach problems can be mitigated with Ranitidine (Zantac). Lower doses give endurance but not the rock hard, "would f* a donut even if cold", power of the half tablet. M 56 2 years

 4  BPH cramps from hell Had to stop after a week as cramps caused 2-3 hours lost sleep every night. Stopped 2 days and started 2.5mg for 3 weeks w/o cramps. Told my Dr. and they suggested 5mg every other day and the 2.5mg on the days I didn't take the 5 again w/o cramps. Then I went to the 5mg every day. Went from six trips per night to two. M 57

 4  To improve erections Initially I had the full set: muscle pains, dizziness, blurred vision, reflux etc. That was when I was taking up to 20 mg at a time. After a few months I started using 5 mg roughly every other day. I now have almost no side effects, except occasional reflux if I eat too fast, but still get all the benefits. I have used both Cialis and generic equivalents (Apcalis, Cynalis) and found all to be equally effective. Where I am at the moment I can only get 20 mg pills so I cut them into 4 (easier with generics). We make love 3 or 4 times a week so I take a 5mg pill 3 or 4 times a week. The fact that Cialis lasts for some time in the body means that I can still perform even though I have not taken a pill for 36 hours. My main recommendation to anyone thinking of using Cialis is to start with a week or so of daily 2.5 mg. Then, depending on the effects (positive and negative) decide whether to continue, to increase the dose or to stop completely. If you get positive effects but also negative side effects I recommend a bit of perseverance if they are tolerable - my side effects have lessened to almost nothing. I allow my pill to dissolve slowly under my tongue; whether that is a factor in reducing the side effects I don't know. Like others I also suggest that you cannot expect Cialis to compensate for years of failing to look after your body; if sex is important enough for you to take a drug it should be important enough to diet and exercise.
