What is the cheaper Cialis called?

Thursday, October 17, 2024

Man happy at computer

There’s no shortage of erectile dysfunction treatment options available. Cialis tablets, one of the most commonly taken medications for ED, are among the most popular. However, what many people with erection problems are not aware of is that there’s a considerably cheaper

Cialis alternative available that’s just as effective.

It’s called Tadalafil, and it’s known for being one of the most effective erectile dysfunction tablets on the market. Here at Oxford Online

Pharmacy, we’re pleased to offer Tadalafil to UK patients looking for an alternative to the over-the-counter Cialis Together or prescription-only Cialis.

In this article, we’ll run through everything you need to know about Tadalafil, including what it is, the benefits of using it, and how it compares with Cialis.

Already know you’re interested in Tadalafil? Complete an online consultation, and your order will be on its way to you the very same day (for orders made before 1 pm).

What is Tadalafil?

Tadalafil is an erectile dysfunction medication. If you’ve heard of Cialis, then you’ve heard of Tadalafil too, since they’re the same thing. The only difference is that Cialis is a brand-name drug, and Tadalafil is the generic version.

Various studies have shown that Tadalafil is effective at treating erectile dysfunction. In one study, it was found that taking 20 mg of Tadalafil was a well-tolerated method of treating ED, with the majority of participants in the study reporting that the drug had a positive impact on their erectile dysfunction.

In another study, it was found that 70% of participants who had taken Tadalafil undertook a successful intercourse attempt between 30 minutes and 36 hours after dosing.

You’ll need a prescription to get Tadalafil, but you don’t necessarily need to visit your GP. Instead, you can use our safe, registered online service to consult with one of our medical professionals, and we’ll ship Tadalafil to you the very same day.

Can you buy Tadalafil online?

It’s not always convenient to attend an appointment with a GP, especially for something such as ED, which many people are justifiably less comfortable discussing with a stranger. Here at Oxford Online Pharmacy, we make it as straightforward as possible for men to request erectile dysfunction tablets.

You can buy Tadalafil online in four easy steps, outlined below.

Step One: Complete a Medical Consultation

Tadalafil is only available with a prescription, but you don’t have to visit your GP.

Click ‘Start My Online Consultation’ and answer a few questions. This is a quick process, often taking as little as two minutes.

Step Two: Select Your Preferred Strength

Tadalafil is available in various strengths — 2.5 mg and 5 mg daily tablets, or 10 mg and 20 mg “when needed” tablets — and various quantities. Once you’ve answered your consultation questions, you can request your desired strength and quantity. Depending on the strength you’ve selected, you may be able to order up to 168 tablets.

Step Three: The Online Doctors Review Your Request

Our UK-registered doctors will review your answers to ensure Tadalafil is appropriate for your needs. In some instances, they may need some additional information before they can make a decision. If so, you will be contacted via the message centre.

Step Four: Your Order Is Sent

Once everything has been finalised, your order will be packaged and sent to you. We aim to send any orders made before 1 pm the same day; orders made after that time will be sent the following day. All orders are sent via Royal Mail Track 48, which means your order should arrive at your door within 48 hours of dispatch.

Benefits of buying Tadalafil online

Unsure of whether Tadalafil is for you? Many men who have never taken ED medication before find that Tadalafil is an excellent introduction.

Check out some of the benefits of buying Tadalafil online below.

It’s Effective

Millions of men across the world experience erectile dysfunction, but it’s not something that they need to live with. Tadalafil has been shown to be highly effective at treating ED. What's more, since this is generally a very well-tolerated drug, the vast majority of people who take

Tadalafil experience no side effects at all.

In one study, more than 80% of participants in a trial verifying the effectiveness of Tadalafil had a successful intercourse attempt.

It’s Long-Lasting

Most ED medications work for a short period of time, usually around 4 - 6 hours. But Tadalafil is different. Effects can last for up to 36 hours.

That means someone taking the medication on a Friday evening may still experience the benefits on Sunday.

It’s Flexible

There’s more than one way to use Tadalafil. Patients may take it at higher strengths for a “quick fix” for their erectile dysfunction. However, it’s also possible to take Tadalafil daily at lower doses to support overall virility.

At Oxford Online Pharmacy, we offer Tadalafil in a range of strengths, from 2.5 mg up to 20 mg, ensuring you can get the option that’s right for your lifestyle.

It’s More Affordable

Nobody wants to spend more on their medication than necessary. One of Tadalafil’s main attributes is its affordability. It’s significantly cheaper than Cialis, yet it’s just as effective, and that’s just because they’re the same thing.

Cialis is just the brand-name version of the drug. Tadalafil is the generic version. They’re the same product, yet one of them is more expensive than the other, all because it’s a brand name.

It’s More Convenient

Erectile dysfunction is a common condition that affects many men, but that fact doesn’t necessarily make it any easier to talk about. People with ED would generally prefer not to have to visit a pharmacy and speak to someone in person.

Now, thanks to services like Oxford Online Pharmacy, they don’t have to. Every step of the process will take place online, so all you need to do is click a few buttons and then wait for your order to arrive at your house.

What’s the difference between Cialis vs Tadalafil?

There are two primary differences between Cialis and Tadalafil: the name, and the price. Beyond that, they’re the same thing. Cialis is simply the brand-name version of Tadalafil.

The patent for Cialis expired back in 2018, at which point other companies were legally permitted to manufacture the drug. In terms of chemical makeup, effectiveness, side effects, and so forth, they’re exactly the same thing.

The only difference of note between the two is the price. Since Cialis is a brand-name drug, it typically costs a lot more than Tadalafil — in general, you can expect to pay around 2 - 5 times less for Tadalafil than Cialis.

How to choose Tadalafil tablets

There are multiple ways to take Tadalafil. You can take it as an instant fix for erectile difficulties (i.e., just before you plan to have sex). If that’s your goal, then it’s recommended to take a 10 mg or 20 mg tablet around thirty minutes before sex.

Start with 10mg if you have never used Tadalafil before.

The other way of taking Tadalafil is to take a low-strength tablet each day. This will help to bolster your overall libido. This method involves taking a 2.5 mg or 5 mg tablet daily regardless of whether you’re planning on having sex.

Not sure whether you should select Tadalafil or Cialis? As mentioned above, they’re the same drug, so it really comes down to how much you want to spend. Tadalafil is a lot cheaper than Cialis yet offers the same experience.

Side effects of Tadalafil

As with all medications, it’s important to be aware of the potential side effects of Tadalafil before taking it. Happily, Tadalafil (and Cialis) are generally very well tolerated, and most people experience no issues whatsoever.

However, the following side effects have been noted in some Tadalafil (Cialis) users in the past:

  • Nausea
  • Blurred vision
  • Dizziness
  • Rash
  • Headaches

It’s also worth keeping in mind that Tadalafil can work too well. If you have an erection that lasts for more than four hours, seek urgent medical assistance.

Order Tadalafil today

Online Pharmacy, we make it as easy as possible for UK men to request Tadalafil. Simply complete an online consultation and place your order, and we’ll send your package to you as soon as one of our doctors has verified that you’re an appropriate candidate for Tadalafil.
