1.Nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate): Cialis and nitrates both lower blood pressure. Taking them together can cause a significant and potentially life-threatening drop in blood pressure (hypotension), leading to dizziness, fainting, or even heart attack or stroke. It is contraindicated to use Cialis with nitrates or recreational "poppers" (amyl nitrites).
2.Alpha-blockers (e.g., prazosin, terazosin, tamsulosin): Both Cialis and alpha-blockers relax blood vessels, which can lead to excessive blood pressure reduction when used together. This may result in dizziness, fainting, or orthostatic hypotension (a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing). If needed, your doctor may adjust the dosage or recommend spacing the medications.
3.Other antihypertensive drugs (e.g., atenolol, propranolol, enalapril, lisinopril): Cialis can enhance the blood-pressure-lowering effects of these medications. While this interaction is usually less severe than with nitrates or alpha-blockers, it can still cause dizziness or fainting in sensitive individuals. Close monitoring of blood pressure is recommended.
Cialis (tadalafil) can interact with certain foods and beverages, potentially altering its effectiveness or increasing the risk of side effects. Here are the key drug-food interactions to be aware of:

Cialis Cialisis a drug designed to treat the symptoms of erectile dysfunction. It is also known by its generic name tadalafil.
Cialis is a prescription drug that is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. This condition can be caused by certain conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease. The drug is also known by its generic name tadalafil.
Cialis works by relaxing the muscles in the blood vessels in the penis. This increases blood flow to the penis and makes it easier to achieve and maintain an erection. The drug is designed to increase the blood flow to the penis.
Cialis belongs to a group of medications called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. This class of drugs treats erectile dysfunction and other erectile dysfunction (ED).
The active ingredient in Cialis is tadalafil.
This drug works by increasing blood flow to the penis, helping to achieve and maintain an erection. It also helps men to maintain an erection during sexual activity.
This drug is an anti-sponging medication that can help in managing erectile dysfunction (ED). It works by relaxing the muscles in the blood vessels in the penis, allowing for increased blood flow to the penis and facilitating an erection.
This drug is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor. It works by relaxing the smooth muscles in the blood vessels in the penis. This allows increased blood flow to the penis and helps achieve and maintain an erection. Cialis is also known by its generic name tadalafil.
This drug is a tadalafil (generic name: Tadalafil). It works by increasing the levels of the blood vessels in the penis, relaxing smooth muscle in the penis and improving blood flow.

It works by increasing the levels of the blood vessels in the penis, allowing for increased blood flow to the penis and facilitating an erection.
Erection problems (impotence) are very common, particularly in men over 40.
Most men occasionally fail to get or keep an erection. This is usually due to stress, tiredness, anxiety or drinking too much alcohol, and it’s nothing to worry about.
If it happens more often, it may be caused by physical or emotional problems.

If you experience any of the following side effects stop using the medicine and seek medical help immediately:
allergic reactions including rashes (frequency uncommon). chest pain – do not use nitrates but seek immediate medical assistance (frequency uncommon). priapism, a prolonged and possibly painful erection after taking CIALIS (frequency rare). If you have such an erection, which lasts continuously for more than 4 hours you should contact a doctor immediately. sudden loss of vision (frequency rare). Other side effects have been reported:
Common (seen in 1 to 10 in every 100 patients)
headache, back pain, muscle aches, pain in arms and legs, facial flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. Uncommon (seen in 1 to 10 in every 1,000 patients)

Partial, temporary, or permanent decrease or loss of vision in one or both eyes has been rarely reported.
Fildenaic acid is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. It works by improving the flow of blood to the penis, which can help men become and keep an erection.
It does this by causing an erection to occur when a man is sexually stimulated. He may become infuriated (poisoned by someone else and causing a serious reaction). Poilage is a form of CIALIS, which is used to treat bronchial asthma and other lung conditions.
It does this by causing the smooth muscle to relax by blocking the enzyme cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) which affects the flow of blood to the brain, also in the penis. This causes the smooth muscle to contract, which causes an erection to occur.
The guanosine chain then travels to the penis, where it causes an erection to occur.
There, the smooth muscle stops producing an erection and produces blood. This can cause anxiety, even after you have had an event-free recovery from all your treatment.
TreatmentTreatments
For some people, ED is a condition that occurs where the brain detects infections and starts producing cGMP. This causes the smooth muscle to relax, and an erection to occur.
