Common use

The active ingredient present in Tadalia strips is tadalafil - 20 mg. Comes in strips – 10 per package.

Tadalafil does not directly cause penile erections, but affects the response to sexual stimulation. The physiologic mechanism of erection of the penis involves release of nitric oxide (NO) in the corpus cavernosum during sexual stimulation. NO then activates the enzyme guanylate cyclase, which results in increased levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), producing smooth muscle relaxation and inflow of blood to the corpus cavernosum.

Also used to treat symptoms of benign prostatic hypertrophy (enlarged prostate), pulmonary arterial hypertension and improve exercise capacity in men and women.

Dosage and direction

Tadalia stripe is taken 20 mg orally once per day at least one hour before an anticipated sexual encounter but not more than once per day.

Tare the Zip Lock pouch and take out the Tadalia plastic box inside the Zip Lock pouch. Put a TADALIA single stripe on the tongue and let it melt. As soon it melts it gives you a very fresh flavour in the mouth and the active ingredients instantly go into the blood stream by Oral-mucosa route. The effect will start immediately at 06-15 mins. The complete effect comes in 15 minutes and can last up to 36 hours.

The dosage of Tadalia may vary from one user to another, depending on the doctor’s prescription.

Tadalafil can be taken with or without food.

Do not break or split a Tadalia stripe.

Tadalia can help achieve an erection when sexual stimulation occurs. An erection will not occur just by taking a stripe. Follow your doctor's instructions.

During sexual activity, if you become dizzy or nauseated, or have pain, numbness, or tingling in your chest, arms, neck, or jaw, stop and call your doctor right away. You could be having a serious side effect of tadalafil.

Do not take Tadalia for erectile dysfunction if you are taking Adcirca for pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Precautions

It is strongly recommended to consult your doctor or pharmacist before you start taking tadalafil and especially emphasize if you are allergic to this drug or if you take other medicines to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension, such as riociguat (Adempas).

Do not take tadalafil if you are also using a nitrate drug for chest pain or heart problems. This includes nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate, and isosorbide mononitrate. Nitrates are also found in some recreational drugs such as amyl nitrate or nitrite ("poppers"). Taking tadalafil with a nitrate medicine can cause a sudden and serious decrease in blood pressure.

Tadalafil can decrease blood flow to the optic nerve of the eye, causing sudden vision loss. This has occurred in a small number of people taking Viagra or other drugs similar to tadalafil. Most of these people also had certain pre-existing eye problems or risk factors for blood vessel disorders (such as heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, coronary artery disease, smoking, or being over 50 years old). It is not clear whether tadalafil is the actual cause of vision loss.

Contraindications

Drinking alcohol while taking Tadalia can cause dangerous or unwanted side effects.

Grapefruit and grapefruit juice may interact with tadalafil and lead to unwanted side effects. Avoid the use of grapefruit products while taking Tadalia.

Avoid using any other medicines to treat impotence, such as alprostadil or yohimbine, without first talking to your doctor.

Commonly reported side effects of tadalafil include headache, dyspepsia, myalgia, nausea, back pain, limb pain, and flushing. Other side effects include upper respiratory tract infection, myalgia, back pain, nasal congestion, and cough. Some tadalafil side effects may not need any medical attention. As your body gets used to the medicine these side effects may disappear. Your health care professional may be able to help you prevent or reduce these side effects, but do check with them if any of the following side effects continue, or if you are concerned about them: acid or sour stomach; belching; heartburn; indigestion; stomach discomfort, upset, or pain

In case you notice any of these side effects or other not listed above - contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Drug interaction

Consult your doctor before taking Tadalia. Tell your doctor about all your current medicines and any you start or stop using, especially: an antibiotic or antifungal medicine; antiviral medicine to treat hepatitis C or HIV/AIDS; drugs to treat high blood pressure or a prostate disorder; seizure medicine.

This list is not complete. Other drugs may interact with tadalafil including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal products. Not all possible interactions are listed in this medication guide. Contact your doctor or pharmacist for more details.

If tadalafil is used as needed, you are not likely to be on a dosing schedule. If you take tadalafil every day and you miss a dose, take the missed dose as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.
