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  Experimenting absolutely none. I was lucky enough not to get a single of the sideeffects mentioned here. I dont have an abnormal erection problem one way or the other. My erections are probably average. I had an Erection 20 minuttes after disolving the 10mg pill under the tongue and about 4 sporadic ones during the next 2 days following. Especially during the second day I could extend the sex duration and stay harder for a while after comming. All in all an average experience with a good bonus effect on the second day. M 41 3 days

 5  ED caused by meds. My side effects vary except for one--tiredness and fatigue. I've had all the others mentioned except for the muscle aches. Oddly, each time I get a different side effect. Sometimes nasal stuffiness; sometimes slight headache; sometimes flushing (rarely); sometimes indigestion; sometimes none. I never know which or what combination. I ALWAYS get very tired and I NEVER get the body aches. Great stuff. My penis is larger while flaccid for days afterwards. Not larger erect, don't get excited. But it's nice to feel "life" down there like when I was a young man and always ready. And the sex is fantastic. Unfortunately, I have the tool to have sex, but I'm too tired to want to! Kind of a problem for me that way. The fatigue is a big problem...I even get dark circles under my eyes like I've went days w/o sleep. But, for me the trade off is worth it at this point in my life.

 4  Very inconsistent erection, BP meds Stuffy nose, I already take Prilosec so no stomach problems, delayed ejaculations sometimes can't cum at all. I have mild hypertension. The Dr. insisted on putting me on beta-blockers to control BP several years ago. That plus the fact that I was a social drinker, especially on weekends, and was single when this began. I had a very active sex life and from the age of 40 until now erection ability has steadily declined. Started by getting Viagra RX from Dr. a few years ago. Viagra made me sick to my stomach and headaches. I suffered with it because it was worth the renewed abilities, but eventually quit the BP meds, and the Viagra, and went a couple yrs not needing anything. 2 years ago I went back to the Dr. for check up and again he put me on BP meds. This time when the ED returned I tried Cialis. Much better, fewer side effects, better sexual performance. It's too expensive, but I buy it anyway. I fill 2 tablets every week. I break them in half take 1 Fri. eve., 1 Sat., 1 Sun. and 1 Wed. That gives me and my fiance the ability for sex all weekend and then again once during the middle of the M 51 2 years

 1  ED Extreme pain in upper legs about 1 in every 5 or 6 times I use it (in fact I'm writing this now because of the leg pain that makes me unable to sleep and barely able to walk; otherwise I sleep and walk just fine); mild backache and mild heartburn almost every time. This is my second sleepless night because of the leg pain and I know from experience that I'm in store for another day or two. It works great for the erection most of the time, but I'm considering dumping my Cialis down the toilet because of all the times that I get all this cursed leg pain! I've had it! M 59 150 days

 5  recreation none divorced after 10 years of marriage and had experience regret when starting a new relationship. Friend gave me half of a 20mg pill. Wow. I now take half of a 20mg pill on Friday and have sex 10 to 12 times by Sunday evening. My girlfriend thinks I am the answer to her prayers. I feel like a teenager, and I can go for 2 to 3 hours at a time. M 38 5 months

 1  sexual steroid Tried 20mg for the first time. Frequent belching and extreme heartburn started within the first couple of hours and made my mouth taste sour. I had a mild lingering headache after about 4 hours until I went to sleep. When I got up the next morning I had a huge charlie horse in the back of my leg. I became extremely dizzy and had to lay back down. I couldn't feel my pulse, got really cold and sweaty and thought I was going to lose conciousness for about 5 minutes. After 24 hours, I experienced soreness in my neck and back muscles. I'm an average, healthy male. I'm not on any other medication and I don't smoke. This drug did not alter my erections in any way, but I admit that I was not taking it for the prescribed purpose. I would highly recommend avoiding Cialis unless you absolutely need it, or at least start yourself off at a LOW dosage (5mg) to see how you respond. Another post suggested Tums and Advil to help with the side effects, and I can confirm they work. M 32 3 days

 5  Booster See comments - Please refer back to my entry of Nov 7, 2007. This is a follow-up. I believe I have now found the formula that works for me. The 20 mg. left me with feelings of discomfort, so now I crack a 20 mg. in half. I take 10 mg. before eating at suppertime Friday – seems to go into effect sooner on an empty stomach. Break the remaining 10 mg. in half. Take a 5 mg. ‘crumb’ at noon Saturday and the final 5 mg. ‘crumb' at noon Sunday. This will last me until the following Wednesday/Thursday. Good to go anytime for the better part of a week with just a slight lower back stiffness getting out of bed in the morning. Clearly, Saturday to Tuesday are the best days, but weekday/workday activity leaves less time for fun stuff anyway. I don’t know if it is health wise to follow this routine every weekend, but it is surely tempting. I will follow-up with my urologist and report back. M 60 1 years

 3  Slight ED/Performance Anxiety No side effects that I could attribute to Cialis. Only took 5mg. Dosage was too low for me. I was worried after reading people's side effects after taking the 20mg tablet. Took 5mg with no real noticeable benefits. Was able to perform, but not to the satisfaction that I was hoping for.

 3  ED Usually some minor headaches but last time I took Cialis I had serious leg and back pain the next night. It was awful, the pain was so bad I could not sleep at all. There was no postion to lay to relieve the pain. I think I am done with taking Cialis; the pain is not worth it. M 55 6 months

 3  Better Erection Backache,legaches Took twice, half of 20mg each time. Did notice some leg cramps a few days after first one, but was not sure if it was tied to Cialis. Took again on Sunday afternoon. Leg cramps started late Monday. Worse on Tuesday and back pain, getting severe. Some tingling. Worried. Finally maturbated (was good). Pain appeared to go away for a time. M 56 2 days

 3  Temporary Insanity, Took Cialis on a saturday after noon. And it worked great. Sex on and off for most of the afternoon and evening. By the next morning however, my throat was scratchy and my nose was stuffy. Had a headache too. Feel like a fever is coming on. today's monday and i actually feel really horrible and very weak. Its not the first time im using Cialis. I think 2 out of 4 times i have used it i have gotten this same side effect. At its best, all i get is a headache which clears after a couple of days without any other meds. I dont mind the headache and consider Cialis action to be far superior to Viagra's but if the side effects continue i may quit using it for good. Willing to try a few more times though (I have 3 X 20mg remaining) M 40 2 months

 1  ED/back injury/failed cervical op back ache/pain at base of neck/extreme joint pain in wrists I've taken Viagra ever since it became available for ED ... and it works very well! Doc wanted me to give Cialis a whirl so I did taking 20 mg last night ... the sex was not up to what I'm used too (not to mention the wife!) with the 100 mg Viagra. WORST part is that I woke up at 3 A.M. in some really incredible pain! Wasn't sure exactly what was happening but suspected that Cialis might have had something to do with it ... and apparently it did! Hell ... I'm having a hard time typing this ... and can't turn a door knob using my right hand! Taking some pain meds now to try and get this under control ... no more Cialis for me! VIAGRA is the way to go!

 4  Better sex I guess the only side effect I get is a headache. 10 mg usually gets me rock hard. Erections are as firm as I had when I was a teen. One tab tends to work over about 3 days. Happy with extra length and girth and fullness of glans (which gets drum tight). Get strong erections when sleeping and as these can last several hours, sometimes need to jerk off to get it down before it becomes painful. Sensitivity vastly improved and able to sustain prolonged vaginal and anal sex. M 33 2 years

 5  Impotence None No, I can't do everything I did in bed thirty years ago but with Cialis I can do a lot more than I could ten years ago. When I was fifty-seven - and experiencing the embarrassment of chronic meat loaf - if anyone had told me I'd be getting it off twice a week when I got to be sixty-seven I'd have laughed out loud. Now that I'm sixty-seven I'm not exactly laughing but I smile at least twice a week. And so does she. Not one bad side effect here and wonder if those disclosures re the possibility of back ache, muscle cramps and a four-hour erection may be too much information (is it a concern or a joy to be told you might keep it up four hours when you've reached the age you're praying the thing will stay hard enough for four minutes?). And just because you read something about back aches do you ignore the words "rare instances". There are a over 150 posts on this page and the percentage of guys claiming to experience these "rare" side effects is suspiciously high. Don M 67 3 years

 1  Stronger Erection I had a horrible experience on Super Bowl Sunday after taking Cialis 20mg on Saturday. I had a seizure while watching the game and ended up in hospital & scaring my wife to death. She didn't know I had taken the pill. I also had an irregular heart beat & ended up on a blood thiinner. My head & body ached. I was too sick to remember to tell the doctor I had taken it. Don't take this drug unless you really check your health with your doctor, it's just not worth the risk. My wife is very upset with me over such a stupid move. She loves me regarless of minor sex disfunction. I'm Blessed to survive, never again. M 59 1 days

 5  why? is there any other reason? severe lower and mid back pain starting about 24 hours after taking 20mg. Tylenol helps but after reading comments from others here I will try a third to half a 20mg tablet. The back pain is really bad. M 58 2 years
