Ciavor (20mg tablet x 4)

Ciavor is a medication that contains the active ingredient tadalafil and belongs to a class of drugs known as phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5 inhibitors). It is commonly used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men.

Tadalafil works by relaxing the blood vessels in the penis, which allows for increased blood flow and helps to achieve and maintain an erection during sexual activity.

Ciavor is available in tablet form, with a recommended starting dose of 10 mg taken orally before sexual activity. The dosage may be increased or decreased depending on individual response and tolerability, but the maximum recommended dose is 20 mg per day. It is recommended to take Ciavor approximately 30 minutes before sexual activity, and it may be taken with or without food.

It is important to follow the instructions provided by the healthcare provider or as indicated on the packaging. Do not take more than one tablet per day, and do not take Ciavor with other medications that contain nitrates or guanylate cyclase stimulators, as this may cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.

Possible side effects of Ciavor include headache, indigestion, back pain, muscle aches, flushing, and nasal congestion. These side effects are generally mild and temporary, but if they persist or worsen, medical attention should be sought. In rare cases, it may cause serious side effects such as sudden hearing loss, vision loss, or priapism (a prolonged and painful erection lasting more than 4 hours), in which case medical attention should be sought immediately.

Ciavor should not be used by individuals who are allergic to tadalafil, have severe liver or kidney disease, have a recent history of heart attack or stroke, or have uncontrolled high blood pressure. It may also interact with other medications, so it is important to inform the healthcare provider of any other medications being taken.

Overall, Ciavor is an effective medication for treating erectile dysfunction in men. However, it is important to follow the recommended dosage and to be aware of the possible side effects and contraindications. It is always best to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new medication.
