WHAT TADALAFIL LILLY IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Tadalafil Lilly is a treatment for adult men with erectile
dysfunction. This is when a man cannot get,
or keep a hard, erect penis suitable for sexual activity. Tadalafil
Lilly has been shown to significantly
improve the ability of obtaining a hard erect penis suitable for
sexual activity.
Tadalafil Lilly contains the active substance tadalafil which belongs
to a group of medicines called
phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors. Following sexual stimulation
Tadalafil Lilly works by helping the
blood vessels in your penis to relax, allowing the flow of blood into
your penis. The result of this is
improved erectile function. Tadalafil Lilly will not help you if you
do not have erectile dysfunction.
It is important to note that Tadalafil Lilly does not work if there is
no sexual stimulation. You and your
partner will need to engage in foreplay, just as you would if you were
not taking a medicine for
erectile dysfunction.

POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
_Adult men _
In general, the recommended dose is 10 mg taken prior to anticipated
sexual activity and with or
without food.
In those patients in whom tadalafil 10 mg does not produce an adequate
effect, 20 mg might be tried. It
may be taken at least 30 minutes prior to sexual activity.
The maximum dose frequency is once per day.
Tadalafil 10 and 20 mg is intended for use prior to anticipated sexual
activity and it is not
recommended for continuous daily use.
In patients who anticipate a frequent use of Tadalafil Lilly (i.e., at
least twice weekly) a once daily
regimen with the lowest doses of Tadalafil Lilly might be considered
suitable, based on patient choice
and the physician’s judgement.
In these patients the recommended dose is 5 mg taken once a day at
approximately the same time of
day. The dose may be decreased to 2.5 mg once a day based on
individual tolerability.
The appropriateness of continued use of the daily regimen should be
reassessed periodically.
