The Growing Demand for Generic Cialis

Sex and intimacy play an essential role in any romantic relationship. Although sex is excellent for the most part, there are times that you may need a little boost. Challenges in the bedroom can sometimes happen, perhaps due to stress or maybe you are not in the mood. But suppose you are constantly experiencing erectile dysfunction or what used to be known as impotence. In that case, it is best to see a doctor for help.

What is ED? Erectile dysfunction is a common medical condition which is characterized as the failure to get an erection and/or maintain it. ED can be easily treated, especially under the guidance of a qualified healthcare provider. In many cases, oral medications like generic Tadalafil or Cialis are prescribed to treat the symptoms and manage the condition.


ED Quick Facts

  • Studies have shown that about 52% of men in the North America are experiencing ED symptoms. The condition may be more prevalent among older men, but ED is not necessarily an “age thing.” Therefore, it is essential to know that younger men are not immune to ED.
  • ED can be caused by physical or psychological factors and sometimes a combination of both. Biological factors include medical conditions such as diabetes, heart conditions and even obesity. In contrast, psychological causes include mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, relationship problems and stress.
  • A specialist must appropriately diagnose ED to ensure that the appropriate treatment will be provided. During your doctor’s consultation, make sure to disclose all pertinent information, such as existing medical conditions and any history of severe ailments like stroke or cardiovascular diseases and also provide them with a list of all medications or supplements that you are taking. This will help them correctly diagnose your condition and recommend the corresponding treatment, such as Cialis.
  • Your lifestyle habits can contribute to your chances of experiencing ED. If you regularly smoke or drink alcohol, then your chances of getting ED may increase. This also holds if you are carrying extra weight or if you lead a sedentary life. The good news is that you can always change your lifestyle by being more active, making healthier food choices and quitting your nasty habits of tobacco use and excessive alcohol consumption.
  • Lastly, having ED can be a sign of an underlying medical condition. If you are concerned with ED, please see a doctor and do not self-diagnose or take supplements not approved by Health Canada or the FDA (Food and Drug Administration).

Generic Tadalafil: A More Affordable Option

  • Tadalafil is primarily used as a treatment for ED and is available in generic and branded variants. The medication belongs to a group of drugs called PDE5 inhibitors which relaxes the smooth muscles to boost blood flow to the penis. This will help facilitate an erection when there is sexual stimulation involved.
  • Tadalafil can be used if you have a valid prescription from your doctor. Apart from treating ED, the medication can also be prescribed to patients with BPH or benign prostatic hyperplasia and PAH or pulmonary arterial hypertension.
  • Tadalafil is dubbed “the weekend pill” because its effects can stay in the system for up to 36 hours. This unique feature gives you more flexibility, so you do not have to plan your romantic moments. Another fantastic part of Tadalafil is that it can be prescribed for daily use at a low dose, or you can take it as needed.

Cialis is the popular brand name for Tadalafil. It is widely received as one of the most effective oral medications for ED. However, it comes with a price. Fortunately, you can request your doctor to prescribe the generic version, which is more affordable but works just like the branded version.

Generic Tadalafil contains the same active ingredients as the branded version. It has also been approved by Health Canada and the FDA, which means that the medication has been adequately tested and is proven to be a satisfactory treatment for ED. Taking the generic version means that you will experience the same potency and even side effects as the branded version.

Generic Tadalafil is relatively cheaper than the branded version because it is produced by many pharmaceutical companies, which creates competition in the market, making the medicines more budget-friendly. Some consumers may not be keen on buying generic products. However, just like brand-name medications, generic Tadalafil is doctor-approved and has met strict quality and safety standards.


Guide to Generic Tadalafil

Similar to branded Tadalafil or Cialis, you can only purchase the generic variant if you have a prescription from your doctor. You can also ask your doctor to recommend a trustworthy pharmacy where you can find the medication. Also, remember that it is essential to follow the prescription regarding dosing and frequency. Do not take more or less of what is prescribed, and if you experience severe side effects, stop taking the medication and seek immediate medical assistance.

Check out these other tips on how to safely purchase Tadalafil:

  • Check the pharmacy’s reputation. Make sure that you are buying from a reputable and licensed pharmacy. You can also look for reviews online to gauge the drugstore’s reputation and how it deals with customers.
  • It is also best to research the manufacturer of the generic Tadalafil. The medicine must come from a well-known or credible pharmaceutical company, and you can do further research by visiting their website.
  • Be vigilant when it comes to counterfeit products. If the generic version is too cheap or you think it is “too good to be true,” then you might as well skip it.
  • Check out online pharmacies for a more convenient option. Look for a trusted online pharmacy so you can safely get your medication. Make sure that the pharmacy requires a prescription for Tadalafil and also has a secured payment method.
  • Get the best option by comparing the prices of different generic Tadalafil medications. Take some time to go over online drugstores and compare their prices and other factors, such as shipping and delivery options.

Generic Cialis offers patients a low-cost option to help them manage their ED. Branded medications may be the first option for many people, but if you are working on a tight budget, then getting the generic variant is the solution.

The International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) questionnaire below will provide you with a quick result in the form of a score from 5 to 25.

Men with concerns about their erectile function can take this quick test and get some information on whether it might be good to seek help for ED.

What Qualifies as an Erectile Dysfunction Problem?

Most men have experienced some difficulty in getting or keeping an erection. Having trouble when you’re nervous or have had too much to drink may not be something to be concerned about.

It isn’t erectile dysfunction unless you are experiencing ongoing difficulty.

The Canadian Study of Erectile Dysfunction identified 49.4% of men over 40 with ED (Canadian Urological Association erectile dysfunction guideline 2015). Though all men may experience an occasional lapse of sexual function, ED is the persistent inability to achieve an erection, despite being sexually aroused.

IIEF-5 Erectile Dysfunction Questionnaire Scoring

Each of the questions has five possible responses, with score values from one to five.

Your total score is simply the sum of the values of all five answers to the ED test questions.

Possible ED Test Score Ranges

22-25: No erectile dysfunction
17-21: Mild erectile dysfunction
12-16: Mild to moderate erectile dysfunction
8-11: Moderate erectile dysfunction
5-7: Severe erectile dysfunction

The results of this brief self-evaluation should be used as a guide for whether you might want to consult with a doctor, and not as a replacement for a medical consultation.
