Vidalista 20mg (Tadalafil) Tablets

What is Vidalista 20mg (Tadalafil) Tablets?

Vidalista 20mg contains tadalafil, a medicine belonging to a group of drugs called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. Tadalafil is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in adult men, and you can read the NHS guidance on tadalafil for information about its uses, dosage and safety. Erectile dysfunction is the inability to get or maintain an erection that is sufficient for sexual activity. Tadalafil works by helping relax blood vessels and increase blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation.

Vidalista 20mg should be used according to the directions provided by a healthcare professional. Tadalafil does not produce an erection without sexual stimulation. For additional information about tadalafil, see our guide on buying Tadalafil online safely.

Vidalista 20mg Tadalafil Tablets: Product Overview

Vidalista 20mg contains 20mg of tadalafil as its active ingredient.

Tadalafil works by inhibiting the PDE5 enzyme. This helps maintain higher levels of cyclic GMP in the penile tissues during sexual stimulation, supporting increased blood flow and an erection. A 20mg tadalafil dose is generally used as an as-needed treatment for erectile dysfunction, rather than as a routine daily dose. European product information states that tadalafil for ED is generally started at 10mg and may be increased to 20mg when appropriate; continuous daily use of 10mg or 20mg is not recommended.

Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare professional. For additional patient-focused information, see MedlinePlus tadalafil information, including precautions, interactions and possible side effects.

Benefits of Vidalista 20mg

Vidalista 20mg may help:

• Treat erectile dysfunction in adult men
• Improve the ability to achieve an erection during sexual stimulation
• Support the ability to maintain an erection
• Improve erectile function when used as directed
• Provide a longer treatment window than some shorter-acting ED medicines

Tadalafil requires sexual stimulation to work and does not automatically cause an erection.

How Does Vidalista 20mg Work?

Vidalista 20mg contains tadalafil, which blocks the action of the PDE5 enzyme.

During sexual stimulation, the body produces cyclic GMP (cGMP), which helps relax the smooth muscle and allows more blood to flow into the penis. PDE5 normally breaks down cGMP. By inhibiting PDE5, tadalafil helps maintain cGMP activity and supports the blood flow needed for an erection. The NHS explanation of how tadalafil works provides additional information about its action and use for erectile dysfunction.This is why Vidalista 20mg works only when there is sexual stimulation.

How to Take Vidalista 20mg

Take Vidalista 20mg exactly as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. For additional guidance on taking tadalafil, see the NHS information on how to take tadalafil.

General information about tadalafil for erectile dysfunction includes:

• Take the tablet by mouth with water.
• Tadalafil can be taken with or without food.
• When prescribed for use before sexual activity, it is generally taken at least 30 minutes beforehand.
• Do not take more than one dose in a day.
• Do not take a higher dose than prescribed.
• Sexual stimulation is required for tadalafil to work.

The appropriate dose depends on your health, other medicines, medical history and response to treatment. Official European guidance states that tadalafil 20mg may be used when 10mg is not effective, but the maximum recommended frequency is once daily and 20mg is not recommended for continuous daily use.

When Should Vidalista 20mg Be Taken?

When tadalafil is prescribed for use before sexual activity, it is generally taken at least 30 minutes before sex. Tadalafil can remain effective for much longer than 30 minutes. Its effects may last for up to 36 hours, but this does not mean that an erection will last for 36 hours. Sexual stimulation is still required.

The exact response can vary between individuals.

How Long Does Vidalista 20mg Last?

Tadalafil has a relatively long duration of action. For some people, its effects can last up to 36 hours after a dose.

This does not mean that the medicine causes a continuous erection. Instead, tadalafil may help a man achieve an erection when sexual stimulation occurs during this period.

Can Vidalista 20mg Be Taken Every Day?

Vidalista 20mg should not be taken every day unless specifically directed by a healthcare professional.

For men who require frequent tadalafil treatment, lower once-daily doses may be considered by a healthcare professional. European product information describes lower daily doses such as 2.5mg or 5mg for appropriate patients and does not recommend continuous daily use of 10mg or 20mg for ED.

Do not change from an as-needed dose to daily tadalafil without medical advice.

Can Vidalista 20mg Be Taken With Food?

Tadalafil can generally be taken with or without food.

However, other medicines, alcohol and certain health conditions can affect whether tadalafil is appropriate for you. Tell your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines, supplements and herbal products you take before using tadalafil.

Important Vidalista 20mg Safety Information

Before taking Vidalista 20mg, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have heart, kidney, liver or blood-pressure problems or take other medicines.

Do not take tadalafil with nitrates

Tadalafil must not be taken with nitrate medicines used to treat angina or chest pain because the combination can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.Because tadalafil can interact with nitrate medicines and certain other drugs, review the FDA prescribing information for Cialis (tadalafil) for detailed safety and interaction information.

Examples include nitrate medicines such as glyceryl trinitrate (GTN).

Tadalafil should also not be combined with medicines such as riociguat unless specifically directed by a healthcare professional.

Alcohol and tadalafil

Drinking excessive amounts of alcohol while taking tadalafil may increase the risk of dizziness or low blood pressure and may also make it more difficult to achieve an erection.

Tell your healthcare professional about other medicines

Some medicines can interact with tadalafil, including certain medicines used for blood pressure, enlarged prostate, HIV, epilepsy, infections and fungal infections.

What If You Miss a Dose?

If you use tadalafil only when needed before sexual activity, there is generally no regular daily dose to make up.

If you have been prescribed a daily tadalafil regimen and miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it is nearly time for your next dose. Do not take two doses together.

Who Should Not Take Vidalista 20mg?

Vidalista 20mg may not be appropriate for everyone.

Do not use tadalafil without medical advice if you:

• Take nitrate medicines for chest pain
• Take riociguat
• Have been advised to avoid sexual activity because of a cardiovascular condition
• Have certain serious heart, liver or kidney conditions
• Have previously experienced certain vision problems associated with reduced blood flow to the optic nerve

Your doctor should review your medical history and current medicines before deciding whether tadalafil is appropriate.
