TADALISTA CT 20

TADALISTA CT 20 is a modern generic for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) that combines two key advantages: the ultra-long duration of action of Tadalafil (20 mg) and the innovative Chewable Tablet (CT) form. This form ensures accelerated absorption and is ideal for men who value spontaneity and an effect that lasts up to 36 hours.

What is TADALISTA CT 20?

TADALISTA CT 20 is an oral medication containing 20 mg of Tadalafil. The distinctive feature of this version is the chewable tablet (soft tablet), designed for dissolving in the mouth.

1. Indication and target dosage

The 20 mg dose of Tadalafil is the maximum recommended daily dose for "on-demand" use. TADALISTA CT 20 is suitable for:

• Men who require a guaranteed and maximally long-lasting effect (up to 36 hours).

• Men for whom spontaneity and a fast onset of action are important.

• Patients who prefer not to take pills with water or have difficulty swallowing.

2. Advantage of the Chewable (CT) form

The chewable/sublingual form (dissolving under the tongue) provides:

• Accelerated Effect: Tadalafil is absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the oral mucosa, bypassing the stomach. The effect can begin in as little as 15–25 minutes (compared to 30–60 minutes for regular tablets).

• Food Independence: Food intake, including fatty food, has virtually no effect on the absorption speed.

Detailed mechanism of action of TADALISTA CT 20

The mechanism of action of TADALISTA CT 20 is based on Tadalafil 20 mg being a potent and selective inhibitor of the PDE5 enzyme.

1. Trigger: Sexual arousal causes the release of nitric oxide (NO).

2. Erectile Cycle: NO stimulates the formation of cyclic GMP (cGMP), which relaxes the smooth muscles of the penile blood vessels, ensuring blood flow.

3. PDE5 Blockade: Tadalafil blocks the enzyme that degrades cGMP. Blocking this enzyme allows cGMP to persist longer, ensuring a stable erection.

Key takeaway: TADALISTA CT 20 does not cause a spontaneous erection. It only works in the presence of natural sexual arousal, but it does so for up to 36 hours.

Instructions for using TADALISTA CT 20

Strict adherence to the instructions is necessary for safety and maximum speed of action.

1. Dosage and method of intake

• Dosage: 20 mg (one tablet) – is the maximum dose. It is strictly prohibited to take more than 20 mg within 24 hours.

• Initial Dose: If you are trying Tadalafil for the first time, it is recommended to start with half a tablet (10 mg).

• Method: Place the TADALISTA CT 20 tablet under the tongue or chew and hold in the mouth until fully dissolved. Do not swallow it whole, to preserve the advantage of fast absorption.

• Timing: Take 15–25 minutes before planned sexual activity.

2. Influence of food and alcohol

• Food: TADALISTA CT 20 can be taken regardless of food.

• Alcohol: Tadalafil is considered the most alcohol-friendly drug in its class. Moderate alcohol consumption usually does not reduce efficacy.

Critical contraindications

The list of contraindications related to the vasodilating effect is strict.

• Interaction with Nitrates: Absolutely forbidden! Taking TADALISTA CT 20 with any form of organic nitrates (Nitroglycerin) or nitric oxide donors ("poppers") causes a life-threatening drop in blood pressure.

• Severe Cardiovascular Diseases: Recent heart attack or stroke (within 6 months), unstable angina, severe heart failure.

• Blood Pressure: Persistent hypotension (pressure < 90/50 mmHg) or uncontrolled hypertension.

• Liver and Kidneys: Severe hepatic or renal failure.

• Eyes: Hereditary degenerative retinal diseases (retinitis pigmentosa).

Side effects of TADALISTA CT 20

TADALISTA CT 20 (Tadalafil 20 mg) is well-tolerated but has its unique set of side effects.

• Common: Headache, dyspepsia (indigestion), facial flushing.

• Specific to Tadalafil: Back pain and myalgia (muscle aches). These effects are usually mild and pass within 12–24 hours.

• Visual Risk: Tadalafil rarely causes color vision disturbances ("blue haze"), unlike Sildenafil.

Professional advice on using

1. Splitting is the key to safety: The TADALISTA CT 20 tablet should be split in half for starting therapy (10 mg Tadalafil).

2. Speed and Duration: The drug combines the best of both worlds—a fast start (15–25 minutes) and a long duration (up to 36 hours).

3. Not for daily use: The 20 mg dose is intended for "on-demand" use.
