| How to take Cialis
Cialis is taken orally when needed between 24 hours and
half and hour before sexual activity. Take only as
directed, usually once daily as needed. Cialis works
along with sexual stimulation to help achieve an erection.
Precautions while taking Cialis:
-
You should have a complete medical
history and exam to determine the cause of your
impotence before taking Cialis.

Men who have medical conditions that
may cause a sustained erection such as sickle
cell anemia, leukemia or multiple myeloma or who
have an abnormally shaped penis may not be able
to take Cialis.
-
There are several medications that
are known to interact with Cialis, so be sure
to tell your doctor about all medications you

treatments is not recommended.
