Tadalafil 20mg, like other medications, can cause side effects. The most common include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These usually are mild and temporary.
Headache and other common side effects
- Headache: Drink plenty of water and rest. If severe, consult your doctor. Flushing: This warmth or redness in your face usually subsides on its own. Nasal Congestion: Use a saline nasal spray or consider over-the-counter decongestants. Indigestion: Avoid large meals or fatty foods before taking the medication.
Less common side effects include back pain, muscle aches, and vision changes (blurred vision, changes in color perception). These usually resolve quickly.
Serious Side Effects and When to Seek Medical Attention
Sudden vision loss: Stop taking Tadalafil immediately and contact your doctor or emergency services. Prolonged erection (priapism): This is a painful and potentially damaging condition requiring immediate medical attention. Hearing loss or ringing in the ears (tinnitus): Consult a doctor immediately. Allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling): Seek medical help immediately.
Before taking Tadalafil 20mg, inform your doctor about your medical history, especially if you have heart problems, low blood pressure, liver or kidney disease, or eye problems. Do not combine Tadalafil with nitrates or other medications used to treat erectile dysfunction. Always follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dosage and frequency of use. Avoid grapefruit juice, as it can interact with Tadalafil.
Medication Interactions
- Nitrates: A dangerous combination, avoid at all costs. Alpha-blockers: May cause significant drops in blood pressure. Other ED medications: Do not take other erectile dysfunction drugs concurrently.
