Managing Cialis Side Effects and Interactions

Experience side effects? Headaches, flushing, and nasal congestion are common. Drink plenty of water to mitigate these. If headaches persist, consider over-the-counter pain relief like acetaminophen. For persistent or severe side effects, consult your doctor immediately.

Medication Interactions

Cialis interacts with nitrates. Combining them can dangerously lower blood pressure. Inform your doctor about all medications you take, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements. This includes alpha-blockers, which can cause a similar interaction. Grapefruit juice can also affect Cialis metabolism; avoid excessive consumption. Always seek medical advice before combining Cialis with other medications.

Addressing Specific Concerns

Prolonged erection (priapism) is a serious side effect requiring immediate medical attention. Sudden vision or hearing loss also necessitates immediate medical help. If you notice any unusual symptoms, contact your doctor without delay. Open communication with your physician ensures safe and effective Cialis use.
