Tadalafil benefits
Tadalafil drugs are a good choice for men who haven’t used erectile dysfunction (ED) treatment before. Most men find the treatment works well from the first use, with few side effects.1
It is also a good choice for men who have used ED treatment before and are looking for something that lasts longer.
Unlike most other ED treatments, whose effects last 4-6 hours, one dose of Tadalafil UK can last up to 36 hours. This means that a tablet taken on a Friday night could still be working on Sunday morning. Tadalafil is sometimes called “the weekend pill” because of this.
Finally, it is also an excellent choice for people who would like to take a tablet every day that supports a more relaxed and spontaneous sex life. The lower-strength tablets are designed to be used in this way.
What is Tadalafil?
Tadalafil is one of a group of medicines called phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors. These work by increasing the blood flow to the penis when sexually stimulated, resulting in an erection that is strong enough and lasts long enough to enjoy sex.
This ED medication will not give you instant or uncontrolled erections, you will always need to be sexually aroused. You will also lose your erection after ejaculation (coming) as normal.
This ED drug is also known by the brand name Cialis, which is also available to buy from Oxford Online Pharmacy.
Like most branded products they are often more expensive than their generic counterparts, such as cheap tadalafil tablets.
How do you take Tadalafil?
Tadalafil is a small tablet that can be taken with or without food and is available in 2.5mg, 5mg, 10mg, and 20mg strengths.
Which strength of Tadalafil is best for me?
Tadalafil is available in different strengths, which are designed to be used in different ways.
Tadalafil 2.5mg & 5mg tablets (Tadalafil Daily)
These low-strength Tadalafil tablets should be taken as one tablet every day.
They should be taken every day whether you have sex on that day or not.
Taking Tadalafil medicine in this way means you always have a small amount in your body, so the medicine is always working. This means you will get an erection whenever you are aroused, no matter what time of day or night.
Once-daily Tadalafil tablets are our recommended treatment choice for people who experience erectile dysfunction regularly and enjoy sex two to three times per week.
Read more about daily Tadalafil in our detailed article.
If you are using low-dose daily Tadalafil for the first time, please note that it takes up to two weeks to start working.
Tadalafil 10mg & 20mg tablets (As required dosage)
10mg and 20mg tablets should be taken a minimum of 30 minutes before sex.
They should only be taken when you are expecting to have sex, and are too strong to be taken every day.
These lower strengths are a better choice for people who only experience erectile dysfunction sometimes, who prefer not to take a tablet every day or who have already tried another ED tablet treatment which hasn’t suited them.
How long does Tadalafil last?
Tadalafil continues to work for up to 36 hours after taking it, which is why many people like it. Also known as the weekend pill as a tablet taken on a Friday night could still be working on Sunday morning, making it convenient and cost effective.
The 2.5mg and 5mg daily doses are taken every day, meaning there is always a small amount of the medicine in your body. This allows erections to be spontaneous at any time.
If you stop taking daily Tadalafil after previously taking for more than two weeks, it will take up to one week for the effects to wear off.
Tadalafil will not give you an instant or uncontrollable erection, you still need to be sexually aroused.
