Tadalafilo is indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in adult men. This condition occurs when a man is unable to obtain or maintain a firm erection, suitable for a satisfactory sexual activity. Tadalafilo has demonstrated a significant improvement in the ability to obtain a lasting erection of the penis suitable for sexual activity.

TadalafiloViatris Pharmaceuticalscontains the active ingredient tadalafilo, which belongs to a group of medications known as phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors. After sexual stimulation, tadalafilo acts by helping to relax the blood vessels of the penis, allowing blood to flow into the penis. The result is an improvement in erectile function. Tadalafilo will not help if you do not have erectile dysfunction.

It is essential to inform you that tadalafilo is not effective without sexual stimulation. Therefore, you and your partner should stimulate yourselves in the same way you would without taking a medication for erectile dysfunction.

Do not take Tadalafilo Viatris Pharmaceuticals if:

• You are allergic to tadalafilo or any of the other components of this medication (listed in section 6).

• You are taking any type of organic nitrates or nitric oxide donors such as amyl nitrite. This is a group of medications (“nitrates”) used to treat angina pectoris (“chest pain”). Tadalafilo has been seen to increase the effects of these medications. If you are taking any type of nitrates or are unsure, tell your doctor.

• You have a serious heart disease or have had a heart attack recently, within the last 90 days.

• You have had a recent stroke, within the last 6 months.

• You have low or uncontrolled high blood pressure.

• You have ever had vision loss due to non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION), a disease described as “eye infarction”.

• You are taking riociguat. This medication is used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (i.e., high blood pressure in the lungs) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (i.e., high blood pressure in the lungs caused by clots). PDE5 inhibitors, such as tadalafilo, have shown to increase the hypotensive effect of this medication. If you are taking riociguat or are unsure, consult your doctor.

Warnings and precautions

• Anemia falciforme (an abnormality of red blood cells).

• Multiple myeloma (bone marrow cancer).
• Leukemia (blood cell cancer).
