Apcalis SX 20mg tablets contain Tadalafil, a medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). This detailed overview provides key information for understanding its use and potential side effects.
Tadalafil works by increasing blood flow to the penis, facilitating an erection. It’s crucial to consult a doctor before use, as it’s not suitable for everyone. Individuals with certain heart conditions, low blood pressure, or who take specific medications should avoid it.
The recommended dosage is usually one 20mg tablet taken approximately 30 minutes before sexual activity. However, your doctor may adjust the dosage based on individual needs and response. Do not exceed the recommended dosage.
Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary. However, seek immediate medical attention if you experience more serious side effects such as chest pain, vision changes, or prolonged erection (priapism).
