Tadact 10 mg Tablet

Tadact 10 mg Tablet is a prescription tablet that contains tadalafil 10 mg in each tablet. Tadalafil belongs to the phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor class and is used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. It may also be prescribed for other doctor-directed uses of tadalafil, depending on the patient’s condition. Tadact 10 mg Tablet is a tablet-only form made by Ipca Laboratories.

How it works: Tadalafil in Tadact 10 mg Tablet helps relax blood vessels and smooth muscle in the penis, which improves blood flow during sexual stimulation. Since this is a tablet, it is swallowed whole and then absorbed into the body to help support an erection when arousal occurs.

Tadact 10 mg Tablet is the lowest strength of this brand in our range, with a higher 20 mg tablet also available. Because it is a lower starting strength, a doctor may choose Tadact 10 mg Tablet for men who need a standard dose with less risk of dose-related side effects than the 20 mg tablet. The 10 mg strength can be easier to adjust from if a clinician later decides a different dose is needed.

• Erectile dysfunction
• Improving the ability to get and keep an erection
• Doctor-directed tadalafil therapy

• Swallow Tadact 10 mg Tablet whole with water; do not crush, split, or chew unless your doctor or pharmacist says it is okay.
• Take it exactly as prescribed, usually before sexual activity rather than on a fixed schedule unless your doctor instructs otherwise.
• Do not take more than one Tadact 10 mg Tablet in 24 hours.
• It may be taken with or without food; a heavy or very high-fat meal may slow how quickly it starts working.
• Sexual stimulation is still needed for it to work.
• Avoid alcohol excess, which can make dizziness or low blood pressure more likely.

Each Tadact 10 mg Tablet provides tadalafil 10 mg. Your doctor decides whether this strength is appropriate and how often you should take it; for erectile dysfunction, it is generally not taken more than once per day. Do not take extra tablets to try to make it work better, and do not exceed the maximum daily dose your prescriber gives you.

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