Start with the lowest dose (2.5mg) and see how it affects you. Many men find this sufficient.
Understanding Dosage Adjustments
Your doctor will guide you, but generally, if 2.5mg isn’t effective enough, you can increase to 5mg. If 5mg is still insufficient, the maximum recommended dose is 20mg. Always follow your doctor’s instructions.
- Dosage increases should be gradual. Don’t jump from 2.5mg to 20mg. Timing matters. Take Cialis at least 30 minutes before sexual activity. Frequency is important. Cialis is available in daily (low dose) and as-needed formulations. Discuss which is best for you.
Factors Affecting Dosage
- Age: Older men may require a lower starting dose. Liver or kidney function: Pre-existing conditions can influence how your body processes medication. Your doctor will adjust the dosage accordingly. Other medications: Some medications can interact with Cialis. Inform your doctor of all medications you are taking.
Remember, individual responses vary. Open communication with your doctor is key to finding the optimal dose for you.
When to Contact Your Doctor
If you experience side effects such as headaches, flushing, or muscle aches. If you experience vision changes or sudden hearing loss. If the medication is not effective.
Don’t hesitate to reach out for guidance. Finding the right dosage is a collaborative process.
