• Keep this product information, as you may need to read it again.
• If you have any questions, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

• This medicine has been prescribed only for you, and you should not give it to others who have the same symptoms as you, as it may harm them.

Tadalafilo Mylan contains the active ingredient tadalafilo, which belongs to a group of medicines called phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors.

Tadalafilo Mylan 5 mg is used to treat adult men with:

• erectile dysfunction. This is when a man cannot get or keep an erection firm enough for satisfying sexual activity. Tadalafilo Mylan has shown a significant improvement in the ability to get a lasting erection of the penis suitable for sexual activity. After sexual stimulation, Tadalafilo Mylan 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 Mylan will not help if you do not have erectile dysfunction. It is essential to inform you that Tadalafilo Mylan is not effective if there is no sexual stimulation. Therefore, you and your partner should stimulate yourselves in the same way as you would if you were not taking a medicine for erectile dysfunction.

• urinary symptoms associated with a common disease called benign prostatic hyperplasia. This is when the prostate gland increases in size with age. Symptoms include difficulty starting to urinate, feeling that the bladder is not fully emptied, needing to urinate more frequently, even at night. Tadalafilo Mylan improves blood flow and relaxes the muscles of the prostate and bladder, which may reduce the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Tadalafilo Mylan has shown to improve these urinary symptoms in as little as 1-2 weeks after starting treatment.

Do not take Tadalafilo Mylan

• if you are allergic to tadalafil or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).

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

• if you have a serious heart condition or have had a heart attack recently, within the last 90 days.
• if you have had a stroke in the last 6 months.
• if you have low or high blood pressure that is not controlled.

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

• if you are taking riociguat. This medicine 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 Mylan, have been shown to increase the hypotensive effect of this medicine. If you are taking riociguat or are unsure, consult your doctor.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor before starting to take Tadalafilo Mylan.

Be aware that sexual activity can pose a possible risk for patients with heart problems, due to the additional strain it puts on the heart. If you have a heart problem, consult your doctor.

Since benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer can have the same symptoms, your doctor will perform a prostate cancer check before starting treatment with Tadalafilo Mylan for benign prostatic hyperplasia. Tadalafilo Mylan does not treat prostate cancer.

Before taking the tablets, inform your doctor if you have:

• sickle cell anemia (an abnormality of red blood cells).
• multiple myeloma (bone marrow cancer).
• leukemia (blood cell cancer).
• any deformity of the penis.
• a serious liver problem.
• a serious kidney problem.

Tadalafilo Mylan is not known to be effective in patients who have undergone:

• pelvic surgery.

• surgeries in which the prostate has been completely or partially removed and the nerves of the prostate have been cut (radical prostatectomy without neurovascular bundle preservation).

If you experience a decrease or sudden loss of vision, stop taking Tadalafilo Mylan and immediately contact your doctor.

There has been a perceived decrease or sudden loss of hearing in some patients using tadalafil. Although it is unknown if the event is directly related to tadalafil, if you experience a decrease or sudden loss of hearing, discontinue treatment with Tadalafilo Mylan and immediately contact your doctor.

Tadalafilo Mylan is not intended for use in women.

Children and adolescents

Tadalafilo Mylan should not be used in children or adolescents under 18 years old.

Fertility

In dogs treated, a decrease in sperm production by the testicles was observed. A decrease in sperm count has been observed in some men. It is unlikely that these effects will cause infertility.

Tadalafilo Mylan taken daily allows you to obtain an erection at any time during the 24 hours of the day, as long as there is sexual stimulation. A daily dose of Tadalafilo Mylan may be useful for men who expect to have sexual activity two or more times a week.
