The recommended starting dose of Cialis for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is 5mg once daily. However, your doctor may prescribe 20mg once daily, depending on your individual response and tolerance.
Always follow your doctor’s instructions carefully. Do not adjust the dosage yourself.
- How to take it: Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. You can take it with or without food. Timing: Consistency is key. Take your dose at the same time each day to maintain consistent blood levels of the medication. Missed Dose: If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it’s almost time for your next dose. Never double the dose.
Potential side effects can include headache, back pain, muscle aches, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. Inform your doctor about any side effects you experience.
Cialis 20mg, while effective for many, may not be suitable for everyone. Certain medical conditions can create interactions. Discuss your complete medical history, including current medications, with your doctor before starting treatment.
Discuss any allergies or sensitivities you have. Report any heart conditions, liver or kidney problems, or low blood pressure. Mention the use of other medications, particularly nitrates.
Regular monitoring by your doctor is recommended to assess the treatment’s efficacy and manage any potential side effects. Your doctor will determine the appropriate duration of treatment based on your individual needs and response.
