Tadaflow 5 mg Tablet

Tadaflow 5 mg Tablet is a prescription medicine that contains 5 mg of tadalafil in each tablet. It belongs to the phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor class and is used for conditions such as erectile dysfunction and, in some patients, symptoms of an enlarged prostate. Tadaflow 5 mg Tablet is taken by mouth and is intended for use only when a clinician has decided tadalafil is appropriate for you.

How it works: Tadalafil in Tadaflow 5 mg Tablet relaxes blood vessels and smooth muscle, which helps improve blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation and can also ease urinary symptoms in some men. As a tablet, it is swallowed and absorbed through the digestive system, so it should be taken exactly as prescribed rather than adjusted on your own.

Tadaflow 5 mg Tablet is a lower, once-daily strength of tadalafil that may be chosen when a doctor wants steady coverage rather than an as-needed dose. Because it is not a fast-acting, higher-dose tablet, it is often selected for people who need ongoing support for erectile dysfunction symptoms or urinary symptoms related to benign prostatic hyperplasia.

• Erectile dysfunction
• Benign prostatic hyperplasia symptoms
• Erectile dysfunction with BPH symptoms
• Doctor-directed daily tadalafil therapy

• Swallow the Tadaflow 5 mg Tablet whole with water; do not split, crush, or chew unless your prescriber tells you to.
• Take it at the same time each day if you are using it as a daily medicine.
• This tablet can be taken with or without food.
• Do not take more than one 5 mg tablet in 24 hours unless your doctor specifically instructs otherwise.
• For erectile dysfunction, sexual stimulation is still needed for tadalafil to work.
• If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it is almost time for your next dose; do not double up.

Each Tadaflow 5 mg Tablet provides 5 mg of tadalafil. This strength is commonly used once daily, but the exact schedule and duration depend on your doctor’s plan and why it was prescribed. Do not take more than 5 mg in a day unless your prescriber has specifically changed your dose.

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