Overview
What is Tadalafil (Generic Cialis) and what does it do?
Tadalafil is the generic version of the popular ED medication, Cialis.
Tadalafil tablets treat erectile dysfunction in men. This is done by improving blood flow to the penis during sexual intercourse. Tadalafil 20mg tablets give men the ability to achieve firmer and longer-lasting erections, staying sexually stimulated for longer.
A large percentage of men will experience some form of erectile dysfunction in their lifetime. This should not be seen as embarrassing and doesn’t have to cause stress. Erectile dysfunction can be caused by a number of factors including age, lifestyle, anxiety, or a specific condition. Tadalafil tablets provide an effective solution to erectile dysfunction, giving control back to men worldwide.
Before starting on any course of treatment you should always consult with a medical practitioner first.
Tadalafil vs Cialis
From 2017, the exclusive patent for Cialis came to an end allowing other companies the opportunity to begin production of the now popular product, Tadalafil.
Tadalafil provides the same medical benefits to Cialis with the main difference being that of the price. Generic medicines more times than not are priced cheaper than their branded counterparts making it more accessible to those in need.
Tadalafil vs Viagra
Both Tadalafil & Viagra are effective ED medications with both boasting high rates of success for patients globally, making it hard to say that one is better than the other. With both belonging to the same class of drugs, PDE5 inhibitors, where we can find differences between the two products lies in the price, side-effects, and how long each pill lasts.Price
Currently. Cloud Pharmacy is selling Tadalafil tablets at £2.75 per pill in a standard pack of 4 pills. Viagra is being sold at £6.25 per pill in a standard pack of 4.Duration
It is advertised that Viagra lasts up to 4 hours and needs to be taken 30-60 minutes before intercourse. Likewise, Tadalafil needs to be taken 30 minutes before intercourse but lasts much longer, up to 36 hours. This is why Tadalafil is often referred to as the ‘weekend pill’.Side effects
The most common side effects of both products are headaches, nasal congestion, and facial flushing. Please note that this is not an exhaustive list of side effects. Always consult with your doctor before taking any medication. Once consumed, if you feel like something is wrong, call 999 immediately.

Tadalafil Side Effects
As with all medications, there are bound to be different side effects experienced by individuals. Below we take a look at common effects through to rare Tadalafil side effects and what to do if you experience them.
Common Side Effects of Tadalafil
The most common side effects of Tadalafil are:
- Headaches
- Flushed skin
- Back pain
- Heartburn
- Nasal congestion
- Indigestion
- Muscle pain
Easily the most common Tadalafil side effect is a mild to moderate headache. Tadalafil works by increasing blood flow, which causes blood vessels to dilate. This increased & fast change of blood flow can then extend to the brain, resulting in a potential headache. This side effect occurs at a rate of 1 in 5 users which is considered a rare occurrence.
Thereafter, the most common side effects include heartburn, nasal congestion, back pain, flushed skin, muscle pain, and indigestion. All of these effects listed have a 1 in 20 chance of users experiencing a side effect. Risks of experiencing a side effect caused by Tadalafil increase the stronger the dose that is consumed.
These side effects should pass within 48 hours of taking the ED medication. If they have not passed after 48 hours, consult with your doctor immediately.
Less common side effects of Tadalafil
Although very uncommon, users may sometimes experience more serious side effects of Tadalafil. It’s important to be aware of these rare side effects to ensure that you act accordingly should you react. Rare side effects are considered to affect 1-100 and 1-1000 people.
Less common side effects include:
- Sensory problems - Users have reported bouts of dizziness, blurred vision, and ringing in their ears. Users have also reported a temporary loss of hearing and on occasion, sight.
- Pain in the heart and/or chest - if any pain is experienced in these parts of the body, call 999 immediately.
- Maintaining an erection beyond the advised period - Tadalafil doesn’t keep you hard continuously, the drug is effective because it makes it easier to maintain an erection when sexually aroused, and goes down once intercourse is over. If your erection becomes painful or lasts beyond 4 hours, seek medical attention immediately. Erections maintained for this amount of time may cause permanent muscle tissue damage.
Although rare, if you experience any of the side effects mentioned above, seek medical attention immediately.
Throughout use of Tadalafil, give yourself time to adjust to the increase in blood flow by taking at least 30 minutes before intercourse. Throughout the use of Tadalafil, make sure to keep hydrated (this is particularly useful when trying to get rid of a headache caused by the medication).
Speak to your doctor before using Tadalafil if you have any concerns.
