Eli Professional 20 mg Tablet

Eli Professional 20 mg Tablet is a prescription tablet that contains 20 mg of tadalafil in each tablet. Tadalafil belongs to the phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor class. It is used in men for erectile dysfunction, and in some cases may also be prescribed for benign prostatic hyperplasia symptoms or other doctor-directed uses. Because this is the 20 mg strength, it is a higher-strength tablet that should be used only when a clinician has decided it is appropriate.

How it works: Tadalafil in Eli Professional 20 mg Tablet relaxes smooth muscle and widens blood vessels in certain areas of the body, which helps increase blood flow when sexual stimulation occurs. As a tablet, it is swallowed and absorbed through the digestive tract before it starts working.

Eli Professional 20 mg Tablet is the higher-strength tablet in this product line, so it is generally suited to adults who have already been assessed by a doctor and need a stronger tadalafil dose. Compared with lower-strength tadalafil tablets, the 20 mg tablet is more likely to be chosen when a lower dose has not been enough or when a clinician wants a stronger on-demand option. It is not meant for routine self-adjusting use.

• Erectile dysfunction
• Doctor-directed use for improved sexual performance
• Benign prostatic hyperplasia symptom relief in some patients
• Other off-label uses only when prescribed by a clinician

• Swallow Eli Professional 20 mg Tablet whole with water; do not crush, split, or chew unless your prescriber says otherwise.
• Take it only as directed by your doctor, usually before anticipated sexual activity rather than on a fixed schedule for ED.
• This tablet can be taken with or without food; a very heavy or high-fat meal may slow how quickly it feels like it starts working.
• Do not take more than one Eli Professional 20 mg Tablet in 24 hours.
• Avoid taking it with nitrate medicines or recreational 'poppers' at any time.
• If you are unsure when to take the Eli Professional 20 mg Tablet, follow the exact instructions from your prescriber or pharmacist.

Each Eli Professional 20 mg Tablet provides 20 mg of tadalafil. For erectile dysfunction, this strength may be taken no more than once per day, but the exact dose and schedule should be set by the doctor based on your health and response. Because 20 mg is a higher strength, it should not be used more often or in larger amounts than prescribed.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
