Cialis Precautions

Things You Must Do
If you are about to be started on any new medicine, remind your doctor and pharmacist that you are taking CIALIS. Tell any other doctors, dentists and health care professionals who treat you that you are taking CIALIS.

Things You Must Not Do
Do not use CIALIS to treat any other complaints unless your doctor tells you to. Do not give CIALIS tablets to others, even if they have similar conditions. Their doctor should decide if CIALIS is right for them.

Things to be Careful Of
Although the frequency of dizziness in men taking CIALIS was similar to that of men taking placebo (sugar pills) in clinical studies, you should be aware of how you react to CIALIS before you drive or operate machinery.

Do not take this medicine if you:

• take any medicines called "nitrates." Nitrates are commonly used to treat angina. Angina is a symptom of heart disease and can cause pain in your chest, jaw, or down your arm;
• use recreational drugs called "poppers" like amyl nitrate and butyl nitrate;
• take medicines called "alpha blockers." Alpha blockers are sometimes prescribed for prostate problems or high blood pressure. If Tadalafil is taken with alpha blockers, your blood pressure could suddenly drop to an unsafe level. You could get dizzy and faint;
• are allergic to tadalafil, or any of its ingredients;
•you have been told by your healthcare provider to not have sexual activity because of health problems. Sexual activity can put an extra strain on your heart, especially if your heart is already weak from a heart attack or heart disease.

Do NOT change your dose of this medicine without talking to your doctor.
Do NOT DRINK alcohol to excess when taking this medicine (for example, 5 glasses of wine or 5 shots of whiskey). When taken in excess, alcohol can increase your chances of getting a headache or getting dizzy, increasing your heart rate, or lowering your blood pressure.
