Vidalista 5 UK

What is Vidalista 5 mg?

Vidalista 5 mg contains tadalafil, a PDE5 inhibitor used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) in adult men. ED is a condition where getting or maintaining an erection firm enough for sexual activity becomes difficult.

Unlike higher tadalafil strengths that are commonly used when required before sex, tadalafil 5 mg can be suitable for once-daily treatment when frequent use is anticipated and a healthcare professional considers daily treatment appropriate.

Taking tadalafil every day can provide greater spontaneity because treatment is not necessarily timed around each individual sexual encounter.

How Does Vidalista 5 mg Work?

Tadalafil helps improve blood flow to the penis.

During sexual stimulation, the body naturally releases nitric oxide, which increases levels of a substance called cGMP. This relaxes blood vessels in the penis and allows more blood to enter the erectile tissue.

Tadalafil blocks the PDE5 enzyme that breaks down cGMP. By allowing cGMP to remain active for longer, tadalafil supports the natural process required to achieve and maintain an erection.

Sexual stimulation is still required. Vidalista does not automatically cause an erection or increase sexual desire.

Why is Tadalafil 5 mg Used Daily?

The 5 mg strength provides a different treatment approach from higher, on-demand tadalafil doses.

For men who anticipate sexual activity frequently, tadalafil 5 mg may be prescribed once a day at approximately the same time each day. This maintains tadalafil in the body and reduces the need to plan a dose immediately before sexual activity.

The suitability of continued daily treatment should be reviewed periodically by a healthcare professional.

How to Take Vidalista 5 mg

If tadalafil 5 mg has been recommended for daily use, take it at approximately the same time every day.

• Swallow the tablet with water.
• It can be taken with or without food.
• Do not take more than one dose per day.
• Do not combine it with another ED medicine.
• Follow the dose recommended by your healthcare professional.

Do not take additional tadalafil simply because you do not experience the expected effect.

How Long Does Tadalafil Last?

Tadalafil is known for having a longer duration of action than some other PDE5 inhibitors. With on-demand tadalafil, the response to sexual stimulation can remain improved for up to 36 hours.

With a 5 mg daily regimen, however, the aim is regular exposure to tadalafil rather than timing a single tablet specifically before sex.

This does not mean an erection lasts for 36 hours. An erection should occur only in response to sexual stimulation.

Vidalista 5 mg and Food or Alcohol

Tadalafil can be taken with or without food, making meal timing less important than with some ED treatments.

Drinking excessive amounts of alcohol should still be avoided. Alcohol itself can make getting an erection more difficult and may increase effects such as dizziness or low blood pressure.

Possible Side Effects

Common side effects associated with tadalafil include:

• Headache
• Indigestion
• Back pain
• Muscle aches
• Facial flushing
• Nasal congestion

Most side effects are temporary, but seek urgent medical attention for chest pain, sudden loss of vision or hearing, or a painful/prolonged erection.

Who Should Not Take Vidalista 5 mg?

Tadalafil must not be taken with nitrate medicines, including medicines commonly used for angina, because the combination can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.

Speak to a healthcare professional before taking tadalafil if you have significant heart problems, very low blood pressure, serious kidney or liver problems, certain eye conditions, or take medicines that could interact with tadalafil.

Daily tadalafil 5 mg is not suitable for everyone, particularly people with certain kidney or liver conditions.
