Cialis 100mg is the highest available dosage. It’s generally prescribed only for men who haven’t responded well to lower doses (5mg or 20mg). Starting with a lower dose allows your doctor to find the most effective and well-tolerated amount for you. A higher dose doesn’t automatically mean better results; in fact, it can increase side effects.
Side Effects and Dosage
The likelihood and severity of side effects, such as headache, muscle aches, back pain, and flushing, generally increase with dosage. If you experience significant side effects on 20mg, 100mg may be unsuitable. Your doctor will carefully weigh the potential benefits against the risks before prescribing the higher dose.
Cost Considerations
100mg tablets are often more expensive per pill than lower dosages. Since you may only need to take a lower dosage, this could translate into significant savings over time. Discuss cost-effectiveness with your doctor and pharmacist.
Finding the Right Dose
Your doctor will guide you through the process of finding the appropriate Cialis dosage for your individual needs. Begin with a lower dosage and adjust based on your response and any side effects. Open communication with your healthcare provider is key to a successful treatment plan.
Long-Term Use
Long-term use requires regular monitoring by your doctor. They’ll assess your overall health and adjust your dosage as needed. Don’t adjust your dosage yourself; always consult your doctor first.
