Cialis
® (
tadalafil) is a prescription medication used for treating problems with obtaining or maintaining an erection.
Cialis is manufactured by Eli Lilly and Company.
Cialis has been licensed to treat
erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction (
ED), also known as
impotence, can be a total inability to achieve erection, an inconsistent ability to do so, or a tendency to sustain only brief erections. Essentially, erectile dysfunction is the repeated inability to get or keep an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse.
Cialis works by blocking a chemical that reverses an erection by allowing blood to flow out of the penis. More blood in the penis means an improved erection.
The effects of Cialis can include:
- Achieving and maintaining an erection during sexual activity
- Having a harder erection during sexual activity
- Experiencing greater frequency of orgasms
- Having increased satisfaction with, and enjoyment of, intercourse.
In previous clinical studies, up to 78 percent of men reported that Cialis allowed them to have successful intercourse. Cialis was also shown to be effective in men with various health problems and medical conditions.
