Drug name
Tadacip (Tadalafil)
INDICATIONS
Tadacip is indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Under normal circumstances, when a man is sexually stimulated, the penis fills up with blood. When erectile dysfunction occurs, enough blood does not flow to cause an erection. Tadacip relaxes the penile blood vessels when a man is sexually stimulated. This allows blood flow into the penis, resulting in an erection. The erection subsides after sex, just as it is supposed to in normal conditions. Please note that Tadacip is not a hormone or aphrodisiac, it works only when a man is sexually stimulated.

Always use Tadacip exactly as your doctor has instructed.
Take Tadacip by mouth with or without food.
For use as needed: Take Tadacip at least 30-45 minutes before sexual activity, as directed by your doctor.
For daily use: Take Tadacip regularly at about the same time each day.
Check with your doctor before you eat grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice while you are taking Tadacip.
