Always inform your doctor about all medications and supplements you’re taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal remedies, before starting Cialis Super Active. This includes nitrates (used for chest pain), alpha-blockers (used for high blood pressure or prostate problems), and antifungal medications like ketoconazole or itraconazole. Combining these with tadalafil can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.
Alcohol and Tadalafil
Consuming alcohol while taking Cialis Super Active can increase the risk of side effects like dizziness, headache, and fainting. Limit your alcohol intake, especially when you first begin treatment, to minimize potential adverse reactions. Moderate alcohol consumption is generally acceptable, but exceeding recommended limits is strongly discouraged.
Grapefruit Juice Interaction
Avoid grapefruit juice. Grapefruit inhibits enzymes that break down tadalafil, leading to higher blood levels of the drug and increasing the chance of side effects. This interaction is significant and should be avoided completely.
Other Potential Interactions
Certain medications for HIV/AIDS (protease inhibitors and ritonavir) can increase tadalafil levels. Your doctor might adjust your Cialis dosage accordingly. Always discuss any new medication with your doctor or pharmacist before adding it to your regimen. This ensures your safety and efficacy of your treatments.
