Understanding Potential Side Effects and Risks

Consult your doctor before using Cialis, especially if you have heart problems, high or low blood pressure, liver or kidney disease, a history of stroke, or blood cell disorders. Cialis can lower blood pressure, potentially causing dizziness or fainting, particularly when combined with alcohol or nitrates.

Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary. Muscle aches, back pain, and vision changes (including blurred vision or temporary blue-tinged vision) are also possible. Less common but more serious side effects include hearing loss and prolonged erections (priapism), requiring immediate medical attention.

Rare but severe side effects include heart attack, stroke, and sudden vision loss. If you experience chest pain, sudden dizziness, or vision changes, seek immediate medical help. Inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, as interactions can occur.
