Description
Talgentis Tabs 20mg are a prescription medication primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. The active ingredient, tadalafil, is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor that works by relaxing the blood vessels in the penis, allowing for increased blood flow and facilitating an erection during sexual stimulation. Talgentis is also effective in managing symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and can improve exercise capacity in individuals with pulmonary hypertension. This medication is typically taken as needed, about 30 minutes before sexual activity, and can be used with or without food. For optimal results, it is essential to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions regarding dosage and frequency.
Dosage/Directions
The recommended dose for treating ED is one tablet (20mg) taken approximately 30 minutes before sexual activity, not exceeding one tablet in a 24-hour period. For BPH, the dosage may vary, so consult your healthcare provider for personalized guidance.
Side Effects
Common side effects may include headache, flushing, indigestion, and nasal congestion. Serious side effects can occur, such as sudden vision loss, hearing problems, or an erection lasting longer than four hours (priapism), which requires immediate medical attention.
