Tadalafil 20mg Tablets (Tadalis SX)

TADALIS SX 20MG DESCRIPTION

TADALIS SX 20MG TABLET contains Tadalafil which belongs to the group of medicines called Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE 5) inhibitors. It is used in adults to treat erectile dysfunction (in men) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

Erectile dysfunction (also known as impotence) is a sexual condition where a man cannot sustain a hard erected penis that is required for a normal sexual activity. It happens due to decreased blood flow to the penis.

PAH can be defined as increased blood pressure in the blood vessels that supply the lungs. It can be caused due to narrowing of blood vessels (arteries) supplying the heart and the lungs. Symptoms of PAH might include shortness of breath, tiredness, weakness and feeling faint.

TADALIS SX 20MG TABLET is not an aphrodisiac (sex-stimulating agent). Therefore, it cannot be used to induce sexual thoughts or can improve sexual performance/pleasure in healthy men.

HOW TADALIS SX 20MG TABLET WORKS

TADALIS SX 20MG TABLET works by blocking the effects of certain enzymes (PDE5) in the body that limits blood flow to the penis. This relaxes the blood vessels supplying the penis, improves blood flow to the penis and makes it stay erect throughout the process of sexual intercourse.

It also relaxes the blood vessels supplying the lungs which enable the blood to flow more smoothly within them with less pressure, leading to reduction in the signs of pulmonary arterial hypertension.
