Mechanism of Action

Cialis belongs to a class of drugs called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. 

• For ED: It works by helping to relax blood vessels in the penis, which increases blood flow and improves erectile function during sexual stimulation.
• For BPH: It relaxes the smooth muscles in the bladder and prostate, reducing urinary symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate.
• Note: Sexual stimulation is required for the drug to work. 

Approved Indications (Uses)

• Erectile Dysfunction (ED): Treatment of inability to get or maintain a hard, erect penis.
