Always follow your doctor’s instructions. Dosage varies depending on individual needs and health conditions.
Cialis
- Daily Use: Typically, a 2.5 mg or 5 mg dose is taken once daily at approximately the same time. As-Needed Use: A 10 mg or 20 mg dose is taken 30 minutes to 2 hours before sexual activity. Never exceed the maximum recommended dose.
Cialis can be taken with or without food, but avoid grapefruit or grapefruit juice, which can affect its metabolism.
Viagra
Start with a 50 mg dose taken approximately 30 to 60 minutes before sexual activity. Your doctor may adjust your dose to 25 mg or 100 mg based on your response and tolerance. The maximum recommended dose is 100 mg.
Viagra should be taken on an empty stomach or with a light meal. Avoid fatty meals as they can delay absorption.
Important Considerations
- These are general guidelines. Individual needs vary significantly. Discuss potential side effects and drug interactions with your physician. Never share your medication with others. Store medication according to package instructions. If you experience unexpected side effects, contact your doctor immediately.
Missed Dose
For Cialis daily, take the missed dose as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for your next dose. Do not double the dose. For Viagra as needed, simply take a dose before future sexual activity. Do not take extra to make up for a missed dose.
