Overview
Ciatuff 20mg Tablet contains tadalafil, a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor used to treat erectile dysfunction in men and to relieve the urinary symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH, an enlarged prostate).
Tadalafil works by blocking the PDE5 enzyme, which allows a molecule called cyclic GMP to build up in the smooth muscle of the penis. This relaxes blood vessels and increases blood flow, helping achieve and maintain an erection with sexual stimulation; a similar relaxing effect on smooth muscle in the prostate and bladder helps ease BPH urinary symptoms.
How it Works
Tadalafil inhibits the PDE5 enzyme, which normally breaks down cyclic GMP. With less breakdown, cyclic GMP levels rise, causing smooth muscle in blood vessel walls to relax; this increases blood flow to erectile tissue with sexual stimulation and can also relax smooth muscle in the prostate and bladder neck, improving urine flow.
Directions for Use
Take the tablet with or without food; for on-demand use, take it at least 30 minutes before anticipated sexual activity. Sexual stimulation is still needed for the medicine to work.
Dosage
For erectile dysfunction, the usual dose is taken as needed before anticipated sexual activity; the exact dose and whether an on-demand or daily regimen is more suitable is determined by the treating doctor.
Shelf Life
Refer to the expiry date printed on the packaging.
Storage Instructions
Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
Side Effects
- Headache
- Muscle aches
- Flushing (warmth or redness in the face, neck, or chest)
- Upset stomach or indigestion
- Back pain

Contraindications
- Known hypersensitivity to tadalafil or any ingredient in the tablet
- Use of any nitrate medicine (such as glyceryl trinitrate for chest pain), as the combination can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure
- Recent stroke, heart attack, or unstable heart disease, unless specifically cleared by a doctor
- Severe liver or kidney impairment, unless dose-adjusted by a doctor
Drug / Food Interactions
- Nitrates must never be combined with tadalafil due to a serious risk of dangerously low blood pressure.
- Alpha-blockers used for blood pressure or prostate symptoms can also cause a significant blood pressure drop when combined with tadalafil, requiring careful dose timing under medical supervision.
- Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors can raise tadalafil levels and may require dose adjustment.
- Inform your doctor of all medicines you are taking, especially heart medicines.
Quick Tips
- Never combine this medicine with nitrate medicines – seek emergency care if you have taken both and feel dizzy or unwell.
- Seek immediate medical attention for an erection lasting longer than 4 hours, as this can cause permanent damage if untreated.
- Tell your doctor about any heart conditions before starting this medicine, as sexual activity itself carries a cardiac risk in some patients.
- Report any sudden vision or hearing loss to a doctor immediately, as these have rarely been associated with PDE5 inhibitors.
