Why it is used
Tadacip is a generic version of Cialis that is known as �The weekender�. With a lower dosage formula that works faster than normal Cialis, Tadacip users experience lower side effects.
Another advantage is that the drug has an effective time of up to 36 hours.
Using Tadacip
Your doctor/healthcare provider will give you complete and comprehensive details about using Tadacip. If you haven�t received instructions, then check the patient information booklet.
Tadacip is known to work differently for different people. So the time duration in which it starts to work may differ from person to person.
In most cases though, it is best when taken 30 minutes prior to having sex.
Tadacip will keep you primed for up to 36 hours.
Instructions for Missed Dosage
Tadacip is only required if you wish to indulge in sexual intercourse. It is not to be taken regularly. So, there is no chance of a missed dosage problem.
But if you forgot to take the medication before having sexual intercourse, then you can take it as soon as you remember it. You must wait for the right amount of time until Tadacip is absorbed in your body.
Storage instructions for Tadacip

What are the overdose symptoms?

Safety Information/ Warning Precautions
Before you begin therapy, meet your health care provider and discuss in detail your past and current medical history. Include any allergic reactions you have to medicines or food.
Also include a list of over-the-counter medications you are taking, including herbal pills, dietary supplements and prescription drugs.
I have certain health complications. Should I avoid Tadacip?
Does your cardiac health restrict you from indulging in vigorous exercise of any sort? Then you must avoid sexual activity also.
Tadacip is restricted to you if you have a history of cardiac problems or bad heart health.
While indulging in sexual activity, if you notice symptoms like chest, shoulder, neck, or jaw pain; numbness of an arm or leg; severe dizziness, headache, nausea, stomach pain, or vomiting; fainting; or vision changes, then it might be an indication of a heart attack. Stop immediately and seek emergency medical care.
Tadacip is also not allowed for people with one or more of the following conditions:
Liver disease
Kidney disease (or if you are on dialysis)
A blood cell disorder such as sickle cell anemia, multiple myeloma, or leukemia
A bleeding disorder such as hemophilia
A stomach ulcer; retinitis pigmentosa (an inherited condition of the eye), a physical deformity of the penis (such as Peyronie's disease)
I drink regularly/occassionally. Is alcohol restricted?
While alcohol usage may not directly interfere with the working of the medication, doctors do not recommend using alcohol as it is a muscle relaxant.
Some patients also experience mild giddiness or drowsiness when they first use Tadacip. This will fade away as the body starts to adjust to the medication.
If you experience this, then you must avoid undertaking tasks that require an alert mind. Driving, handling heavy machinery etc should be avoided.
If you notice any of these signs, then sit down or lie down immediately.

Additional Important Information while using Tadacip
If you experience an erection that lasts for more than 6 hours, then you should seek emergency medical care. This erection may occur randomly after taking the medication and will not subside even after you have sex. It may cause permanent damage to your penile tissues.
The usage of other similar ED medications may intensify the side effects and hence should be avoided completely while using Tadacip.
It has been noticed that patients over the age of 65 are more prone to the side effects of Tadacip. Hence, caution should be exercised in them while using Tadacip.
Tadacip must not be used in children or women.
Very Important Information
Tadacip is not a protective barrier against sexually transmitted diseases like HIV. For that, you must always practice safe sex techniques. Speak to your doctor for more details.
Information for pregnant women/expecting/lactating Mothers
Tadacip is an oral therapy for curing male impotency. If you are a woman of childbearing age/pregnant/lactating already, then speak to your health care providers to discuss the potential risk it poses to your unborn/newborn baby.
It may even be secreted in the breast milk. So speak to your health care provider about this.
Side Effects
Every medication takes time to adjust with the body and may show certain side effects that fade away as the body adjusts to Tadacip. These include Headache, Indigestion, Back Pain, Muscle Aches, Flushing, Stuffy or Runny Nose.
But if these side effects do not go away by themselves or become bothersome, then seek medical attention.
On rare occasions, it may also cause severe side effects like back pain and muscle aches. These usually subside within a 48 hour period.
These should be reported immediately to your health care provider.
