Cialis - Erectile Dysfunction Treatment

Cialis is a long-lasting treatment for men's health in treating erectile dysfunction. The medicine is a prescription-only treatment packaged in a number of different strengths. They are the branded version of generic tadalafil made by pharmaceutical company Lilly. The active ingredient tadalafil belongs to the same class of medicines as sildenafil which is contained in Viagra. Like Viagra, Cialis is known as a PDE-5 (phosphodiesterase type 5) inhibitor. It works by relaxing the blood vessels that flow into the penis. When more blood flows, a satisfactory erection is achieved. Men need to be sexually aroused to get an adequate erection. Cialis is available as daily 2.5 or 5mg tablets for sexually active men. It also comes in 10mg or 20mg pills taken when needed
