Cialis 40 mg

How It Works

Cialis 40 mg works by relaxing the smooth muscles present in the walls of blood vessels. It helps to increase the blood flow throughout the body, including the penis. Known as a PDE 5 inhibitor, it blocks the action of the enzyme PDE 5 that stops the flow of blood and does not let erection to occur. The production of cGMP is necessary for the dilation and contraction of blood vessels. The enzyme PDE 5 destroys cGMP and does not let the blood flow properly. Tadalafil present in Cialis 40 mg blocks the action of PDE 5 and allows cGMP to be produced properly. This allows the blood to flow to the penis. As a result, a pressure is created in the penis that leads to an erection.

Uses

Cialis 40 mg is prescribed for the treatment of the following problems:

1. Erectile Dysfunction (ED) – also known as impotence, it makes it difficult for a man to achieve or maintain an erection.
2. Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) – high blood pressure of arteries present in the lungs and right side of the heart.
3. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) – age-associated prostate gland enlargement that causes painful and frequent urination.

Dosage

Doctors recommend consuming a single pill of Cialis 40 mg in 24 hours for men diagnosed with erectile dysfunction. Cialis comes in dosages of 5mg, 20mg, 40mg, and 60mg – the appropriate dose is prescribed by the doctors after understanding the needs of the individuals. This medicine can be taken with or without food. For best results, take the pill exactly one hour before any sexual activity. The effects of this medicine last for 36 hours. Do not consume more than one pill in 24 hours.

Missed Dosage: An on-demand dosing schedule is generally followed. This means that this medicine is taken as and when needed. Therefore, the chances of missing a dose are very less. However, if you take Cialis 40 mg for the treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH), you should take the missed dose as soon as possible. If its time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose. Avoid consuming an overdose of the drug to make up for the missed dose.

Overdose: An overdose of the drug can lead to serious side-effects. If you experience any side-effects for long, seek medical attention immediately.
