Cialis side effects

Does Cialis come with any side effects?

Despite being prescription-only medications, both regular Cialis and Cialis daily (Once a Day) may cause some side effects. A very small percentage of people who have taken the medicine have reported some degree of stomach discomfort, headache, back pain, facial flushing, muscle aches and stuffy nose.

Cialis side effects are usually mild in nature in the majority of cases and most people do not require any treatment. In fact, previous studies have shown that only 3.1% of people who take Cialis stopped taking it due to an adverse drug reaction.

Results from clinical trials

The risk of side effects with Cialis has been subject to a number of clinical trials. Based on a study involving 5,700 people, experts have found headache to be the most common Cialis side effect affecting about 15 out of 100 men taking the medicine. Facial flushing and nasal congestion are the next two most frequent side effects of tadalafil, affecting 10% and 9% pill-users respectively. Only 3 out of 100 men reported having facial flushing after they took the impotence drug.

Small precautions when taking Cialis

It is advisable for anybody who is already on a course of nitrate medication to avoid Cialis. This can significantly reduce the likelihood of Cialis side effects. A combination of the two could prove dangerous because when taken together, they can lead to a severe drop in blood pressure.

Instances that may require urgent medical consultation

The large majority of people who take Cialis tolerate the impotence drug well. However, it is extremely important that you contact your GP if you experience any of the side effects of Cialis for a prolonged period of time, particularly if they begin to affect your quality of life. It is also important to consider that although extremely rare, more severe Cialis side effects have been reported.
