Cialis – what is it?
Cialis is a prescription medicine used in treating Erectile Dysfunction (ED) as well as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). Erectile Dysfunction, or ED, can affect men at any age. However, is most commonly appears in men over 40. Not all men suffer from the same degree of ED. Some men are totally unable to get or maintain an erection whereas some men can maintain erections for a brief amount of time. Some studies suggest that 40% of South African men currently suffer from some degree of Erectile Dysfunction. There are many factors that can contribute to ED such as psychological issues, chronic illnesses like diabetes and heart disease, side effects from other prescribed medications, and certain unhealthy lifestyle choices like drinking and obesity.
ED isn’t the only problem for many of these men. ED sufferers can also developBPH which is a condition where the prostate gland becomes enlarged and causes urinary problems like urinating more often and urgently, especially at night, or stopping and starting during urination. Cialis can be effective for treating both conditions by increasing blood flow to the penis. In ED sufferers, this blood flow helps to get and maintain an erection when used with sexual stimulation, and will last until intercourse is completed. In BHP sufferers, it relaxes the bladder muscles and increases the blow flow to the prostate. You can take Cialis in one of two ways: a daily dose which is used to treat both ED and BPH or take it when you need it before sexual intercourse to get and maintain an erection. Either way you will need a prescription from your family doctor. It is always safer to fill the prescription in person or online at a trusted pharmacy. Some websites advertise cheap pills that you can sometimes buy without a prescription. Beware however. These are likely counterfeit pills which are very dangerous to your health. Besides not containing the active ingredient necessary to treat ED, they may contain toxic chemicals like mercury and lead. Use a trusted pharmacy to get your medication and always use a prescription from your doctor. There are a few mild side effects you should be aware of before taking this medication. Most are generally mild and go away after a few hours. Side effects include headaches, muscle aches, indigestion, runny nose, and flushed skin.
It is possible to have a painful and/or prolonged erection which can be a dangerous condition. If you have an erection that has lasted longer than four hours, go immediately to the nearest emergency room. Always let your doctor or dentist know you are taking Cialis when they are prescribing new medications. If you are treated in an emergency room, especially for a heart related problem, it is also very important to tell your doctors that you are currently taking this medication. Cialis should always be kept in its original packet and away from heat and moisture. It does not keep well when removed from the original packaging and may not work as as expected. Always make sure to keep it out of the reach of all children. If you think you might be suffering from Erectile Dysfunction, call your doctor today and ask how Cialis can help you get back to a normal romantic life. You’re worth it and so is your relationship.
