What is
Cialis
?

Cialis (tadalafil) belongs to the cGMP-Specific Phosphodiesterase Type 5 Inhibitor (PDE5) family of medications.

Cialis is primarily used as a treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED), but in some cases, it’s also used for treating the signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

For more resources, including a full list of the risks and benefits of Cialis, please review the product monograph.

How does
Cialis
work?

Treatment of ED: Following sexual stimulation, Cialis works by helping the blood vessels in your penis to relax, allowing the flow of blood into your penis. This results in improved erectile function.

It’s important to note that sexual stimulation is still needed for Cialis to function.

What is
Cialis
used to treat?

Cialis is most commonly used as a treatment for the symptoms of erectile dysfunction (ED).

In some cases, Cialis is used to treat the signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

How do you take
Cialis
?

In most cases, Cialis prescriptions are taken as needed, between 30-60 minutes before starting sexual activity. Its median full-effect takes place around 2 hours after taking Cialis, but its effects can last up to 36 hours from a single dose.

However, when once-a-day Cialis prescriptions are recommended, timing for the pill doesn’t matter as much. It’s only recommended that the dose is taken at roughly the same time each day, so that its effects are maximized. It may take up to 5 days for once-a-day Cialis to reach steady blood levels.

How long does
Cialis
last after you take it?

What are the common side effects of
Cialis
?

The most common side effects from using Cialis include:

  • Indigestion (dyspepsia)
  • Headache
  • Back pain
  • Muscle pain (myalgia)
  • Nasal congestion
  • Facial flushing
  • High blood pressure (hypertension)

Uncommon side-effects:

  • Swelling of the eyelids
  • Eye pain
  • Red eyes

Allergic reactions (including skin rashes). In rare cases, people may experience a priapism; in which an erection lasts for more than four hours.

Sudden decrease or loss of vision has occurred rarely after the use of oral erectile dysfunction medications, including Cialis. If this occurs, it’s best to seek immediate medical attention.

If you start to experience any serious side effects, it’s best to talk to your healthcare practitioner at Felix about them. They’ll be able to suggest a different dosage or alternative medications, which may be a better option for you.

Who shouldn't take
Cialis
?

There are a number of people that should avoid using Cialis, such as:

  • People under the age of 18
  • People taking nitrate medication
  • People with a hypersensitivity to tadalafil
  • People who’ve had a previous episode of non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION)
  • People taking other guanylate cyclase stimulators
  • People taking other erectile dysfunction treatments or PDE5 inhibitors

In addition to these concerns, people with a history of cardiovascular issues, or a renal impairment should be sure to discuss these issues with their healthcare practitioner, before starting Cialis.

Women are not intended to use Cialis, and there are minimal studies to explore the potential outcomes, so it’s best for people assigned female at birth to not take this medication.

Frequently asked questions

Cialis

Can you drink alcohol when taking Cialis?

According to the manufacturer, drinking excessive alcohol (they define it as 5 glasses of wine or 5 shots of whiskey) can increase your chances of getting a headache or getting dizzy, your heart rate increasing, or lowering your blood pressure.

If you’re planning on having a single beer or glass of wine you may not experience a difference in effectiveness. However, it is still sensible to minimize alcohol consumption when taking Cialis and alcohol.

Does Cialis expire?

Yes, Cialis does expire. Always check the expiration date on your prescription before taking it.

Does Cialis increase your size?

Cialis does not make you bigger. By relaxing the blood vessels around the penis, Cialis and other PDE5 inhibitors may help you get and maintain an erection, but this process will do nothing for your penile size.

Having more blood flowing in there might make it feel bigger. More blood flowing to the penis can give you a firmer erection that may alter the sexual experience for you and your partner.

Can I get a Cialis prescription online?

In Canada, you must first speak with a licensed healthcare practitioner, before you can get an online Cialis prescription.

Felix makes this process quick and convenient for our patients. Just complete an online assessment with one of our healthcare practitioners, and they’ll be able to tell you whether they think Cialis is right for you.

Best of all, if you are given a prescription, Felix will ship your medication right to your home for free!

With Felix, you can speak with a licensed healthcare practitioner from the privacy of your home by completing a short online assessment.

Then if they believe it’s an appropriate treatment option for you, based on your current condition and medical history, they’ll be able to write you an online Cialis prescription.

The cost of Cialis in Canada depends on the dose and brand of the tablets being purchased. Cialis is a brand name, and brand-name medications are generally more expensive than their generic counterparts. You can choose if you want to purchase the brand name or the generic version. Your healthcare practitioner will determine the appropriate dose.

You’ll be able to see the estimated cost of Cialis during your online visit. The prices you see will also include the Felix Pharmacy fill fee based on your refill schedule. Should you choose to have your medication dispensed through the Felix Pharmacy network, there will be no additional shipping costs on top of the cost of Cialis and the filling fee. If you have insurance or benefits that cover some or all of the price of the medication, this will be deducted from the price that you pay.

However, keep in mind that this won’t show up in your account until our pharmacy partners fill your prescription. If you ever want to pause your Cialis refills, it’s easy to do so with Felix. In this case, any payments will be paused until you’re ready to resume your prescription.

Can I be accurately assessed remotely?

Absolutely. Our online assessments have been designed to ask all the necessary questions required for diagnosis.

Online Visits

How does the visit work?

After creating an account, you will complete a medical assessment for evaluation by one of the Felix healthcare practitioners. 

During your assessment, you will have the opportunity to send your practitioner questions via secure messaging.  

In most cases, practitioners will complete your assessment with secure messaging alone but sometimes they may determine you require an audio or video visit and/or further diagnostic testing to help determine the best treatment plan for you. 

If your practitioner has determined a prescription treatment is appropriate, they will approve your visit and write you a prescription. Our pharmacy will then ship your prescription to your home.

You’ll be able to message your healthcare practitioner if you have questions or want to make changes to your treatment at any time.

Do I need to complete my online visit at a scheduled time?

No. We use an asynchronous telemedicine model so you can complete your online visit in your own time and we save your progress so you can come back later to finish it.

If you are completing a visit in the mental health or weight loss categories, your healthcare practitioner may require a phone or video call to discuss your medical profile further during the assessment process.

Does the online visit require a phone or video appointment?

Most assessments do not require a phone or video conversation. Once a prescriber has reviewed the info in your assessment they will respond to you via secure instant messages that you can access within your Felix account.  

If you are completing a visit in the mental health or weight loss categories, your healthcare practitioner may require a phone or video call to discuss your medical profile further during the assessment process.

You can expect to receive a response from a healthcare practitioner within 24 hours of submission. If you’ve been waiting longer than this, please email hello@felixforyou.ca and we’ll look into it.
