What is Tadalafil and what are its uses?
Tadalafil is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men.
Erectile Dysfunction is a condition when a man can't get an erection to have sex or can't keep an erection long enough to finish having sex. Erectile Dysfunction is also called impotence.
Tadalafil does not cure ED or increase a man's sexual desire. Tadalafil is only for men with ED and is not for women or children. Tadalafil should only be used under a healthcare provider's care.
The FDA approved Tadalafil in November, 2003.
Tadalafil contains the active ingredient Tadalafil, which is a medicine used in the treatment of erectile dysfunction (impotence). Tadalafil is called a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor, and works by preventing the action of a chemical in the body called phosphodiesterase type 5.
An erection is produced via a complex chain of events, involving signals from the nervous system and the release of chemical messengers within the tissues of the penis. One of these chemical messengers is called cyclic GMP.
Cyclic GMP causes the blood vessels in the penis to widen by relaxing a thin layer of muscle found in the blood vessel walls. This allows more blood to enter the penis, which ultimately results in the penis becoming rigid and erect.
Cyclic GMP is normally broken down by another chemical in the body called phosphodiesterase type 5. Tadalafil works by preventing the action of phosphodiesterase type 5, thus stopping the breakdown of cyclic GMP. This means that the blood vessels are kept dilated for longer, improving blood flow to the penis and maintaining an erection.
As Tadalafil enhances the actions of the chemical messengers responsible for producing an erection, it will only work once these messengers are present. This means that sexual stimulation is required for Tadalafil to produce and maintain an erection. The tadalafil dose should be taken at least 30 minutes before intended intercourse, and Tadalafil may produce an erection in response to sexual stimulation for up to 36 hours after taking the dose.
