Cialis is FDA approved oral medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. It contains the active ingredient tadalafil, which helps increase blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation.

Cialis is known for its long-lasting effects and flexible dosing options.

The proven effectiveness of tadalafil in treating erectile dysfunction, along with its growing use in other medical conditions, is exactly why our pharmacy has made it a core part of our offering.

What are the benefits of taking Cialis?

  • Helps achieve and maintain a firm erection
  • Can remain effective for up to 36 hours

Is Cialis Safe?

Not only is Cialis safe, but it can be used in preventing a string of widespread diseases plaguing Americans. A recent study published in The American Journal of Medicine, March 2025 titled "Benefits of Tadalafil and Sildenafil on Mortality, Cardiovascular Disease, and Dementia" found that men taking Cialis or similar medications had a lower risk of heart attacks, strokes, blood clots, and even dementia. The study also showed that Cialis offered more heart-related benefits than Viagra in men with erectile dysfunction.

Cialis Dosage

Cialis is available in several strengths and forms, each suited for different needs and usage patterns.

Cialis pills
  • Cialis Daily (tadalafil 2.5 mg and 5 mg) – for daily use, ideal for men with frequent sexual activity or mild to moderate ED
  • Cialis 10 mg and Cialis 20 mg – taken as needed, suitable for most men with moderate to severe ED
  • 40 mg (generic Cialis only) – rarely prescribed, used only under strict medical supervision
  • During the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy clinical trials of tadalafil efficacy, men who took 10 mg or 20 mg of tadalafil were much more successful during sex, about twice as often as those who took a placebo. Around 85% also said their erections improved, compared to less than half in the placebo group.

Cialis Without a Doctor Prescription

You can get generic Cialis prescription online, for example at Walgreens, or GoodRX. Also, it’s possible to order generic cialis, or cialis from countries where tadalafil is available without a prescription. Countries like the UK, Norway, and New Zealand allow over-the-counter sales, which supports the idea that it’s generally safe when used correctly.

It’s important to talk to your doctor first in order to:

  • Confirm that you have erectile dysfunction and it’s not caused by a more serious issue
  • Make sure there are no health risks or medication interactions in your case

Generic Cialis

Generic Cialis was approved by Food and Drug Administration and contains the same active ingredient, tadalafil, as the brand-name. It has been tested and approved to meet the same standards of quality, safety, and effectiveness.

Generic cialis, produced after the original patent expired by Indian or Mexican manufacturers, has more affordable price to buy online

How Safe is Generic Cialis?

Generic Cialis considered safe for most men when taken as directed. It has been used worldwide for many years to treat erectile dysfunction and urinary symptoms, and its safety profile is well-established.

Is Cialis the Same as Viagra?

According to American Urological Association, Cialis and Viagra are both used to treat erectile dysfunction, but they are not the same drug. They contain different active ingredients: Cialis has tadalafil, while Viagra contains sildenafil. Both improve blood flow to the penis, but they differ in how long they last and how quickly they work. Cialis can last up to 36 hours, hence the of nickname “the weekend pill”. Viagra, on the other hand, lasts 4 to 6 hours. Cialis also comes in a daily low-dose option, which Viagra does not.

At the end of the day, which is better, Viagra or Cialis? They are both reliable and safe drugs, each in their right. Neither of them is more powerful than the other, although its longer duration makes many believe that Cialis is more impactful. You should chose based on the demands of your sex life and individual response.

What happens if a Woman Takes Cialis?

Cialis works by widening blood vessels, which increases blood flow to the pelvic area in both men and women. In men, this supports stronger erections, while in women it may enhance arousal, improve natural lubrication, and potentially lead to more intense orgasms.
