Taking more than the prescribed dose of Cialis can lead to several potential problems. It’s crucial to understand these risks before considering higher doses.
Cardiovascular Issues
High doses increase the risk of low blood pressure, potentially leading to fainting or dizziness. This effect is amplified in individuals with pre-existing heart conditions. Regular blood pressure monitoring is recommended if you’re concerned.
Headaches and Back Pain
- Increased frequency and intensity of headaches are common. Back pain can worsen significantly with higher dosages.
These side effects usually subside after discontinuing the higher dose.
Vision Problems
While typically mild and temporary at prescribed doses, higher doses may increase the risk of prolonged vision changes, including blurred vision or changes in color perception. Seek immediate medical attention for any sudden or severe visual impairment.
Hearing Problems
Rarely, high doses of Cialis can cause hearing loss, especially in combination with other medications. This should be discussed with a doctor immediately.
Other Potential Long-Term Effects
Prolonged erection (priapism) requiring immediate medical attention. Increased risk of nasal congestion. Muscle aches. Indigestion.
