Are performance issues leaving your partner unsatisfied and craving better pleasure?<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re reading this, you might be concerned about your pecker\u2019s flagging performances during your Friday evening romps.<\/span><\/p>\n

While erectile dysfunction (ED) isn\u2019t something many men take pleasure in discussing, it\u2019s definitely more common than you think.<\/span><\/p>\n

The mistaken assumption many men and women have that only men of a certain vintage have a hard time getting hard is simply just not true.<\/span><\/p>\n

Even men in their young adulthood can experience some form of ED arising from a multitude of issues.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many men will experience some degree of difficulty producing an erection once in a while, and most of it boils down to apparently obvious causes like fatigue, anxiety, stress, or downing too many drinks before the deed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, erectile dysfunction is only considered a health issue when it persists.<\/span><\/p>\n

ED can also arise from nervous, hormonal, or psychological issues, but in general, it\u2019s usually a mix of psychological and physical factors.<\/span><\/p>\n

The good news is that these days, there is a bevy of safe and effective erectile dysfunction treatments on offer \u2013 tadalafil, the active ingredient and generic version of Cialis included.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is tadalafil (Cialis)?<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tadalafil is a member of the phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor family of drugs that works to inhibit the breakdown of cGMP. cGMP is the substance that promotes dilation of blood vessels to increase blood flow in the penis resulting in an erection.<\/span><\/p>\n

PDE5 inhibitor drugs like sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil, vardenafil (Levitra), and avanafil (Stendra) share this same mechanism of vasodilatory action that help promote erections. And since they open up blood vessels, they may also be used to treat conditions like pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have a cardiovascular condition or are taking any antihypertensive drugs, consult your doctor before taking tadalafil or Cialis.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tadalafil was also the first ED drug ever approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for daily use as opposed to its other PDE5 inhibitor kin; tadalafil and its branded counterpart Cialis come in low-dose formats suited for daily treatment of ED.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do I take tadalafil?<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s make one thing clear: tadalafil isn\u2019t a \u201cgas station pill\u201d or an aphrodisiac.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That means, taking tadalafil won\u2019t instantly make you hard. Tadalafil requires sexual stimulation and arousal for it to work, as does any other ED drug of its class (e.g. sildenafil).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Unlike sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil\u2019s absorption rate isn\u2019t affected by food intake or moderate alcohol consumption, meaning you can take it anytime as you please.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, excessive alcohol intake is a proven erection killer, and will likely affect your ability to function. Worse, mixing alcohol and tadalafil may lead to a precipitous drop in blood pressure. So if you want to be sure that all your cylinders are firing when it\u2019s time for some action, lay off the booze or drop it entirely.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the tadalafil\u2019s main differences from other PDE5 drugs is the duration of its effect \u2013 36 hours compared to sildenafil, which lasts for up to only 4 hours before its effects start tapering off. This doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019ll have a stiff member for 36 hours, but if you\u2019re in the mood for some action, you\u2019ll be ready for it anytime within that 36-hour window.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So if you think the ship of having spontaneous sex has long sailed for you, think again \u2013\u00a0tadalafil might just be the answer to your ED issues.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How long does it take before tadalafil starts kicking in?<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now, when should you take tadalafil, and how long do its effects take to kick in? The truth is, while the effects vary depending on every individual, the time frame it takes to kick in is similar.<\/span><\/p>\n

See, tadalafil doesn\u2019t work like a magic pill that makes you hard as soon as you take it. It\u2019s NOT an aphrodisiac. Tadalafil, like all PDE5 inhibitors, requires sexual arousal or stimulation to be effective, so that you can produce erections within its duration of effects.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re taking tadalafil on an as-needed basis, take it 30 minutes before having sex, but do know that it could take up to one to two hours to take flight.<\/span><\/p>\n

On average, it may take up to 2 hours for tadalafil to work. However, men have reported experiencing effects kicking in after 15 to 20 minutes after taking tadalafil. Additionally, most tadalafil users will be able to produce erections after just a 30-minute time frame.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In contrast, generic sildenafil or Viagra needs to be taken at least an hour in advance of anticipated sex to be at its most effective.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are more than a few factors that influence the length of time it takes for tadalafil to work, such as any pre-existing health conditions you might have, other medicines you might be taking, your age, diet, and tadalafil dose all come into play.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you are taking tadalafil daily, it\u2019s best to take it at the same time every day to make sure that there is a constant level of the drug\u2019s concentration in your bloodstream.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since taking tadalafil daily removes the need to plan for your sexual escapades, most men often go this dosing route.`<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Conclusion: Is tadalafil an effective ED drug?<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tadalafil and its PDE5 inhibitor brethren don\u2019t give erections at the drop of a hat. Rather, they help optimize the performance of your \u201cplumbing system,\u201d so when you get aroused or stimulated, it works as well as it should.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taking more than your prescribed dosage of PDE5 inhibitors won\u2019t make it any longer or harder. Tadalafil and its PDE5 family just don\u2019t work like that.<\/span><\/p>\n

Harnessed and used properly, tadalafil can help you treat the physical symptoms of ED and give you that confidence boost you need to perform at your best in the bedroom.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, if your ED is caused by something else \u2013 such as relationship or self-esteem issues, or perhaps anxiety or stress \u2013\u00a0then there might be more to your ED than just needing a pill to fix it. In this case, you might want to consult a mental health professional to get to the bottom of it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ultimately, tadalafil remains one of the best options for treating ED, so if your erection quality starts to get flaky at times, consult your doctor about getting a tadalafil prescription.<\/span><\/p>\n
