Using Cialis in the Right way in order to Treat Erectile Dysfunction

Cialis is a medication that is used in treatment of erectile dysfunction. It is specific for men, meaning that women are not supposed to take it.

The amount of dosage to take

Generally you are supposed to take 10mg taken before getting involved in sexual intercourse. Unlike many other erectile dysfunction drugs, you can take it with or without food. This is a great advantage because you will not be limited when you are under it. In case the 10 mg fails to work in the right way, you can try taking 20mg. This dosage should be taken half an hour before sexual intercourse. However, before you increase the dosage, it is good to seek advice from your doctor.
