Cialis, The Weekend Pill

Cialis is probably the second most famous erectile dysfunction drug available on the market today. Launched in 2003 it has been a very popular alternative to the first erectile dysfunction drug Viagra. Cialis is made with a compound called tadalafil that is able to block the enzyme phosphodiasterase-5 that breaks down cyclic guanosine monophosphate that is essential in the making sure that an erection happens. It is these low levels of cGMP that often result in erectile dysfunction.

It has been estimated that nearly 40% of males of the age of forty have experienced some form of erectile dysfunction and this figure rises to 50% by the age of 50. The amount of ED sufferers continues upwards with age and by the age of 80 almost all men have erectile dysfunction in some way. In the days before the erectile dysfunction drugs it was expected that an older man would just have to resign himself to a life of no sex, but now with Cialis, Viagra and others this is not the case anymore.

Cialis has a number of advantages over Viagra. For example Viagra only works for four hours and so sex must be planned and also Viagra can't be taken after a big meal as fatty food reduces the efficiency of Viagra. Cialis however works for 36 hours at a stretch so sex can be had at anytime during that period and you can take your time. Cialis is fast becoming known as the The Weekend Pill. Cialis also has the advantage of not interacting with diet so it can be taken at anytime.

People who use Cialis say that the advantage of the drug is that partners can be spontaneous and impulsive in their love making and they dont have to worry about eating and timing before sex. If you suffer from erectile dysfunction Cialis could be the answer for you.
