Medical Grade Tadalafil Tablets, Color : Yellow

Tadalafil 20 mg tablets are a medication primarily used to treat several conditions in men, and in some cases, women (specifically for pulmonary arterial hypertension).

Here 's a general description:

What it is:

• Active Ingredient: Tadalafil

   

   

• Class of medication: Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor.This means it works by blocking an enzyme (PDE5) that is found in various tissues, including the and lungs.

   
   

   

Appearance:

• While the exact appearance can vary slightly by manufacturer, 20 mg tadalafil tablets are typically light yellow to yellow, round or capsule-shaped, film-coated tablets.They may have an imprint, such as "L339 " or "T20, " on one side.

   
   

   

• They often contain lactose as an excipient.

   

   

What it 's used for:

• Erectile Dysfunction (ED): This is the most common use. Tadalafil helps men achieve and maintain an erection firm enough for sexual activity by increasing blood flow to the when sexually stimulated.Its effects can last for up to 36 hours, earning it the nickname "The Weekend Pill. "

   
   

   

• Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): This is an enlarged prostate gland that can cause urinary symptoms like difficulty urinating, frequent urination, and weak stream.Tadalafil helps relax the muscles in the prostate and bladder, improving these symptoms.

   
   

   

• Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH): Tadalafil (under a different brand name, Adcirca) is used in both men and women to treat PAH, a condition of high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs.It works by relaxing blood vessels in the lungs, reducing pressure and improving exercise capacity.For PAH, the typical dose is 40mg (two 20mg tablets) once daily.

   
   

   

How it works:

• Tadalafil works by inhibiting the PDE5 enzyme. When sexual stimulation occurs, nitric oxide is released, which leads to an increase in cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). cGMP relaxes smooth muscles and increases blood flow. By inhibiting PDE5, tadalafil prevents the breakdown of cGMP, thus sustaining its effects.

   
   

   

Dosage and Administration:

• For ED, the 20 mg tablet is typically taken as needed, at least 30 minutes before sexual activity. It should not be taken more than once in a 24-hour period.

• It can be taken with or without food.

   

   

• For PAH, 20 mg tablets are usually part of a 40 mg daily dose (two 20 mg tablets taken at the same time).

   

   

Important Considerations and Potential Side Effects:

• Sexual Stimulation Required for ED: For treating ED, tadalafil will only help achieve an erection if there is sexual stimulation.

• Drug Interactions: It is crucial to inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, especially nitrates (often used for chest pain or heart problems), as combining them with tadalafil can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.

   

   

• Common Side Effects: Headache, flushing, indigestion, back pain, muscle aches, nasal congestion, and dizziness.

• Serious (but rare) Side Effects: Sudden vision loss, sudden hearing loss, and prolonged or painful erection (priapism - seek immediate medical attention if an erection lasts more than 4 hours).

   

   

• Consult a Doctor: Tadalafil is a prescription medication, and its use should always be guided by a healthcare professional, especially to determine the correct dosage, assess potential risks, and manage any side effects.
