Product Information:
TALFIL 10mg Tablets contain Tadalafil 10mg, a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor. It works by enhancing the effects of nitric oxide in the corpus cavernosum of the penis, promoting smooth muscle relaxation and increased blood flow to facilitate erections in response to sexual stimulation.
The 10mg dose is primarily used as an on-demand (as-needed) treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED).
Uses of (TALFIL 10MG TAB):
- Erectile dysfunction (ED) – as an on-demand oral therapy
- May be used off-label for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in some settings, though daily lower doses (2.5–5mg) are preferred for this indication
Key Benefits of (TALFIL 10MG TAB):
- Effective within 30–60 minutes of intake
- Long duration of action—up to 36 hours (“weekend pill”)
- Flexible dosing—only when needed
- Lower incidence of side effects compared to sildenafil in some patients
How To Use (TALFIL 10MG TAB):
- Take as needed, 30–60 minutes before sexual activity.
- Swallow whole with water—can be taken with or without food (high-fat meals may delay onset).
- Do not take more than once per day.
- Sexual stimulation is required for an erection to occur.
💡 Dose Adjustment: If 10mg is insufficient, may increase to 20mg; if side effects occur, reduce to 5mg.
When Not to Use (TALFIL 10MG TAB):
Do not use if you have:
- Hypersensitivity to tadalafil or any excipients
- Concurrent use of nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide) or guanylate cyclase stimulators (e.g., riociguat)—risk of life-threatening hypotension
- Severe cardiovascular disease (unstable angina, recent MI/stroke, uncontrolled arrhythmia)
- Severe hepatic or renal impairment (dose adjustment may be needed)
⚠️ Important: Do not combine with other PDE5 inhibitors (e.g., sildenafil, vardenafil).

Dosage: (TALFIL 10MG TAB):
- Recommended starting dose: 10mg as needed, prior to sexual activity
- Maximum: Once per day
- May adjust to 5mg or 20mg based on efficacy and tolerability
Who It’s For (TALFIL 10MG TAB):
Men with erectile dysfunction who prefer on-demand treatment rather than daily dosing, and who are medically fit for sexual activity.
Warnings & Precautions:
- Avoid excessive alcohol—may enhance hypotensive effects
- Use caution in patients with anatomical penile deformity (e.g., Peyronie’s disease)
- Evaluate cardiovascular status before initiation in men with cardiac risk factors

Drug Interactions:
- Nitrates: Contraindicated—severe, potentially fatal hypotension
- Alpha-blockers: May cause additive blood pressure lowering—use with caution
- CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, ritonavir): May increase tadalafil levels—consider lower dose
