Tadalafil (Cialyn 20mg) – Deus Medical

Tadalafil is the active substance in Cialis and is known primarily for treating erectile dysfunction (ED) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).¹ It is a Phosphodiesterase Type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor.²

Role and Benefits (General)

• Erectile Dysfunction (ED): Tadalafil works by relaxing muscles and increasing blood flow to the penis, aiding in achieving and maintaining an erection upon sexual stimulation.³

• “Weekend Pill”: Due to its long half-life (around 17.5 hours), its effects can last up to 36 hours, making it highly popular.⁴

• Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): It can also be used to treat the signs and symptoms of an enlarged prostate.⁵

• Bodybuilding Context: Some athletes use Tadalafil or similar PDE5 inhibitors to achieve a greater “pump” and vascularity during training by increasing nitric oxide (NO) production and blood flow to the muscles.⁶

Usage and Dosage Guidelines (General)

• ED Use (As Needed): A dose of 10 mg or 20 mg is typically taken prior to anticipated sexual activity.⁷

• ED Use (Daily): Lower doses (2.5 mg or 5 mg) can be taken once daily for continual effect.

• Bodybuilding Use: Doses in the 5 mg to 20 mg range are sometimes used pre-workout to maximize the “pump” effect.

Side Effects and Contraindications (General)

• Common Side Effects: Headache, indigestion/dyspepsia, back pain, muscle aches (myalgia), flushing, and stuffy nose.⁸

• Serious Side Effects: Rare but serious side effects include sudden vision loss, hearing loss, or priapism (an erection lasting longer than four hours).⁹

• Contraindications:

  • Nitrates: Must NEVER be taken with any form of nitrate medication (e.g., nitroglycerin used for chest pain), as this can cause a severe and life-threatening drop in blood pressure.¹⁰

  • Cardiovascular: Individuals with certain heart problems or low blood pressure are generally advised against its use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is the primary advantage of Tadalafil over Sildenafil (Viagra)?

Tadalafil has a much longer effective duration, often lasting up to 36 hours (the “Weekend Pill”), whereas Sildenafil typically lasts about 4–6 hours.¹¹

2. Can Tadalafil be taken daily?

Yes, Tadalafil is available in lower-dose formulations (2.5 mg or 5 mg) that can be taken once daily for a continuous effect, rather than just on an “as needed” basis.¹²

3. Does Tadalafil interact with alcohol?

Yes, excessive alcohol consumption while taking Tadalafil can increase the risk of side effects such as dizziness, headache, and low blood pressure (hypotension).¹³

4. Why would a bodybuilder use Tadalafil before a workout?

Some bodybuilders use Tadalafil to enhance the muscle pump by increasing nitric oxide (NO) production and improving blood flow (vasodilation) to working muscles, which theoretically aids nutrient delivery and fullness.
