and what it is used for<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tadalafil Stada contains the active substance tadalafil which belongs to a group of medicines called&nbsp;phosphodiesterase&nbsp;type 5 inhibitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tadalafil Stada 5 mg is used to treat adult men with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>erectile dysfunction<\/strong>.\u00a0This means that a man cannot get, or maintain, a hard and erect penis, sufficient for sexual intercourse.\u00a0Tadalafil has been shown to\u00a0significantly\u00a0improve the ability to have a hard and erect penis, sufficient for sexual intercourse.\u00a0Tadalafil Stada works during sexual stimulation by relaxing the blood vessels in the penis, so that blood can flow in.\u00a0This results in improved erectile function.\u00a0If you do not have\u00a0erectile dysfunction, Tadalafil Stada will not help.\u00a0It is important to remember that Tadalafil Stada has no effect if you are not sexually stimulated.\u00a0The need for foreplay for you and your partner is the same as when you have not taken any medication for\u00a0erectile dysfunction.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>urinary tract symptoms are associated with a common condition called\u00a0benign\u00a0prostatic hyperplasia.\u00a0This is when the prostate gland becomes larger with increasing age.\u00a0Symptoms include difficulty passing water, a feeling of not being able to empty the bladder, and having to pass water more often, even at night.\u00a0Tadalafil Stada improves blood flow and relaxes the muscles of the prostate and bladder, which can reduce symptoms of\u00a0benign\u00a0prostatic hyperplasia.\u00a0Tadalafil has shown an effect on these urinary tract symptoms as early as 1-2 weeks after starting treatment.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Tadalafil contained in Tadalafil Stada may also be approved to treat other conditions not mentioned in this product information.\u00a0Ask your doctor, pharmacist, or another healthcare professional if you have any further questions, and always follow their instructions.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you need to know before you use Tadalafil STADA<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do not use Tadalafil STADA<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>if you are allergic to tadalafil or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6)<\/li><li>if you take medicines containing\u00a0organic nitrates\u00a0or nitric oxide donors such as\u00a0amyl nitrite.\u00a0These medicines (&#8220;nitrates&#8221;) are used to treat angina (chest pain).\u00a0Tadalafil has been shown to increase the effect of these drugs.\u00a0If you are taking any form of nitrates or if you are not sure, talk to your doctor<\/li><li>if you have a serious heart condition or have recently had a heart attack within the last 90 days.<\/li><li>if you have recently had a stroke within the last 6 months.<\/li><li>if you have low\u00a0blood pressure\u00a0or uncontrolled high\u00a0blood pressure.<\/li><li>if you have ever lost your sight due to non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION), the so-called &#8216;stroke in the eye&#8217;.<\/li><li>if you take riociguat.\u00a0This medicine is used to treat\u00a0pulmonary\u00a0arterial\u00a0hypertension\u00a0(ie high\u00a0blood pressure\u00a0in the lungs) and\u00a0chronic\u00a0thromboembolic\u00a0pulmonary\u00a0hypertension\u00a0(ie high\u00a0blood pressure\u00a0in the lungs due to blood clots).\u00a0PDE5 inhibitors, such as tadalafil, have been shown to increase the blood pressure-lowering effect of this drug.\u00a0If you are taking riociguat or if you are not sure, talk to your doctor.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Warnings and precautions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Tadalafil Stada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that sexual intercourse poses a possible risk for patients with heart disease, as it puts more strain on the heart than usual.&nbsp;If you have heart problems, tell your doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As\u00a0benign\u00a0prostatic hyperplasia\u00a0and prostate cancer can have the same symptoms, your doctor will investigate you regarding prostate cancer before starting treatment with Tadalafil Stada for\u00a0benign\u00a0prostatic hyperplasia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tadalafil Stada is not a treatment for prostate cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before taking the tablets, tell your doctor if you have:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>sickle cell anemia&nbsp;(abnormal&nbsp;red blood cells&nbsp;)<\/li><li>multiple&nbsp;myeloma&nbsp;(cancer of the&nbsp;bone marrow&nbsp;)<\/li><li>leukemia&nbsp;(blood cell cancer)<\/li><li>deformed penis<\/li><li>severe liver disease<\/li><li>severe kidney disease.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not known whether Tadalafil Stada is effective in patients who have undergone:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>pelvic surgery<\/li><li>surgery where part or all of the prostate gland is removed and where the nerves are not preserved (radical non-nerve sparing&nbsp;prostatectomy&nbsp;).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you experience a sudden decrease or loss of vision, stop taking Tadalafil Stada and contact your doctor immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Impaired hearing or sudden hearing loss has been noted in some patients taking tadalafil.&nbsp;Although it is not known whether the events are related to tadalafil, you should stop taking Tadalafil Stada and contact your doctor immediately if you develop hearing impairment or sudden hearing loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tadalafil Stada is not intended for use by women.<br><a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Children and young people<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tadalafil Stada is not intended for use by children and adolescents under 18 years of age.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other medicines and Tadalafil STADA<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tell your doctor if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not take Tadalafil Stada if you are already taking nitrates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some medicines can be affected by Tadalafil Stada or affect how well Tadalafil Stada will work.&nbsp;Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are already taking:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>alpha-blockers (used to treat high\u00a0blood pressure\u00a0or urinary tract symptoms related to\u00a0benign\u00a0prostatic hyperplasia\u00a0)<\/li><li>any other medicine for high\u00a0blood pressure<\/li><li>riociguat<\/li><li>a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor (used to treat\u00a0benign\u00a0prostatic hyperplasia\u00a0)<\/li><li>medicines such as ketoconazole tablets (to treat fungal infections) and\u00a0protease inhibitors\u00a0to treat\u00a0AIDS\u00a0or\u00a0HIV\u00a0infection.<\/li><li>phenobarbital,\u00a0phenytoin\u00a0and carbamazepine (antiepileptic drugs)<\/li><li>rifampicin, erythromycin, clarithromycin, or itraconazole.<\/li><li>other treatments for\u00a0erectile dysfunction.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tadalafil STADA with food, drink, and alcohol<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For information on the effect of alcohol, see section 3. Grapefruit juice can affect how well Tadalafil Stada will work and should be taken with caution.&nbsp;Talk to your doctor for more information.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fertility<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When dogs were treated, a decrease in sperm was seen.\u00a0A decrease in sperm has been seen in some men.\u00a0It is unlikely that this reduction in sperm would lead to\u00a0infertility.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving ability and use of machinery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dizziness has been reported by some of the men taking tadalafil in clinical trials.\u00a0Feel how you react to the tablets before driving or using machinery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires increased attention.\u00a0One of the factors that can affect your ability in these respects is the use of drugs due to their effects and\/or\u00a0side effects.\u00a0Description of these effects and\u00a0side effects\u00a0can be found in other sections.\u00a0Read all the information in this leaflet for guidance.\u00a0Discuss with your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tadalafil STADA contains lactose and sodium<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have an intolerance to some sugars, you should consult your doctor before taking this medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This medicine contains less than 1 mmol (23 mg)&nbsp;of sodium&nbsp;per tablet, i.e.&nbsp;is almost &#8220;sodium-free&#8221;.<br><a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to use Tadalafil STADA<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Always take this medicine as directed by your doctor or pharmacist.&nbsp;Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tadalafil Stada tablets are taken by mouth and are intended for men only.&nbsp;Swallow the tablet whole with a little water.&nbsp;The tablet can be taken regardless of a meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alcohol intake can temporarily lower your\u00a0blood pressure.\u00a0If you have taken or plan to take Tadalafil Stada, avoid consuming large amounts of alcohol (0.8 per mille or more in the blood) as this may increase the risk of dizziness when standing up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For the treatment of&nbsp;erectile dysfunction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The recommended&nbsp;dose&nbsp;is one<\/strong>&nbsp;5 mg tablet a day, taken at about the same time each day.&nbsp;Your doctor may change the&nbsp;dose&nbsp;from one to 2.5 mg depending on how Tadalafil Stada works for you.&nbsp;Dose&nbsp;one is then given as a 2.5 mg tablet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not possible to use 5 mg tablets for all dosage recommendations;\u00a0tadalafil may also be available as 2.5, 10, and 20 mg tablets.\u00a0Not all strengths may be marketed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not take Tadalafil Stada more than once per day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you take Tadalafil Stada once a day, you can get\u00a0an erection\u00a0at any time during the 24 hours, if you are sexually stimulated.\u00a0The daily\u00a0dosing\u00a0of Tadalafil Stada may be appropriate for men who have sexual intercourse two or more times per week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to remember that Tadalafil Stada has no effect if you are not sexually stimulated.\u00a0The need for foreplay for you and your partner is the same as when you have not taken any medication for\u00a0erectile dysfunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alcohol intake can affect your ability to get\u00a0an erection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For the treatment of&nbsp;benign&nbsp;prostatic hyperplasia<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dose&nbsp;one is<\/strong>&nbsp;one 5 mg tablet a day, taken at about the same time each day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have\u00a0benign\u00a0prostatic hyperplasia\u00a0and\u00a0erectile dysfunction, the\u00a0dose\u00a0is still one 5 mg tablet a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not take Tadalafil Stada more than once daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you use too much Tadalafil STADA&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have ingested too much medicine or if, for example,\u00a0If a child has ingested the medicine by mistake, immediately contact a doctor or hospital for an assessment of the risk and advice.\u00a0You may experience\u00a0the side effects\u00a0described in section 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you forget to use Tadalafil STADA<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Take your&nbsp;dose&nbsp;as soon as you remember but do not take a double&nbsp;dose&nbsp;to make up for a missed tablet.&nbsp;You should not take Tadalafil Stada more often than once a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any further questions about this medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist.<br><a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Possible side effects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like all medicines, this medicine can cause\u00a0side effects, although not everybody gets
