Always consult your doctor before using Cialis, even if it’s a generic version. Common side effects include headache, facial flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary.
More Serious Side Effects
Less common, but more serious, side effects include changes in vision (blurred vision, blue-tinted vision), hearing loss, prolonged erection (priapism), and chest pain. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these. Prolonged erections require prompt medical help to prevent permanent damage.
Certain medications interact negatively with Cialis. Inform your doctor about all medications you’re taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements. This is vital for preventing dangerous interactions. Conditions like heart disease, low blood pressure, or stroke increase the risk of complications. Your doctor will assess your suitability for Cialis, considering your overall health.
Avoid alcohol consumption while using Cialis, as it can increase the risk of side effects. Grapefruit juice can also interact negatively. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully regarding dosage and frequency of use. If you miss a dose, do not double up; simply take the next dose as scheduled.
