Read this leaflet carefully before you start taking this medicine because it contains important information for you.

• Keep this leaflet, as you may need to read it again.
• If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
• This medicine has been prescribed for you only. Do not give it to others even if they have the same symptoms as you, as it may harm them.
• If you experience any side effects, consult your doctor or pharmacist, even if they are not listed in this leaflet. See section 4.

Tadalafilo Aristo 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 Aristo has demonstrated a significant improvement in the ability to obtain a lasting erection of the penis suitable for sexual activity.

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

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

Do not take Tadalafilo Aristo if:

• You are allergic to tadalafil 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"). It has been seen that Tadalafilo Aristo increases 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). The PDE5 inhibitors, such as Tadalafilo Aristo, have shown that they produce an increase in the hypotensive effect of this medication. If you are taking riociguat or are unsure, consult your doctor.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor before starting to take Tadalafilo Aristo.

Be aware that sexual intercourse carries a possible risk for patients with heart problems, due to the additional effort it imposes on the heart. If you have a heart problem, consult your doctor.

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

• Anemia falciforme (a red blood cell abnormality);

• Multiple myeloma (bone marrow cancer);
• Leukemia (blood cell cancer);
• Any penile deformity;
• A serious liver problem;
• A serious kidney problem.

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

• Surgery in the pelvic area;
• A surgical intervention in which the prostate has been completely or partially removed and the nerves of the prostate have been cut (radical prostatectomy without preservation of neurovascular bundles).

If you experience a sudden decrease or loss of vision, or if your vision is distorted or blurred while taking Tadalafilo Aristo, stop taking Tadalafilo Aristo and immediately contact your doctor.

A decrease or sudden loss of hearing has been observed in some patients taking tadalafil. Although it is not known if the event is directly related to tadalafil, if you experience a decrease or sudden loss of hearing, stop taking Tadalafilo Aristo and immediately contact your doctor.

Tadalafilo Aristo is not intended for use in women.

Children and adolescents

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

Use of Tadalafilo Aristo with other medications

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have taken recently, or may need to take any other medication.

Do not take Tadalafilo Aristo if you are already using nitrates.

Some medications may be affected by Tadalafilo Aristo or may affect the proper functioning of Tadalafilo Aristo. Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are using:

• An alpha blocker (used to treat high blood pressure or urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia);
• Other medications to treat high blood pressure;
• Riociguat;
• A 5-alpha reductase inhibitor (used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia);
• Medications such as ketoconazole tablets (for the treatment of fungal infections) and protease inhibitors for the treatment of HIV/AIDS or HIV infection;
• Phenobarbital, phenytoin, and carbamazepine (anticonvulsant medications);
• Rifampicin, erythromycin, clarithromycin, or itraconazole;
• Other treatments for erectile dysfunction.

Taking Tadalafilo Aristo with beverages and alcohol

The information about the effect of alcohol is found in section 3 "How to take Tadalafilo Aristo". Grapefruit juice may affect the proper functioning of Tadalafilo Aristo and should be taken with caution. Consult your doctor for more information.

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.

Driving and operating machines

Some men who took Tadalafilo Aristo during clinical trials experienced dizziness. Check carefully how you react when taking the tablets before driving or operating machines.

Tadalafilo Aristo contains lactose

Each Tadalafilo Aristo 10 mg film-coated tablet contains 126 mg of lactose (as monohydrate).

Each Tadalafilo Aristo 20 mg film-coated tablet contains 252 mg of lactose (as monohydrate).

Tadalafilo Aristo tablets are for oral administration only in men. Swallow the tablet whole with a little water. The tablets can be taken with or without food.

The tablet can be divided into equal doses

The recommended initial doseis one 10 mg tablet before sexual activity. If the effect of this dose is too weak, your doctor may increase the dose to 20 mg.

You can initiate sexual activity at least 30 minutes after taking Tadalafilo Aristo.

Tadalafilo Aristo may still be effective up to 36 hours after taking the tablet.

You should not take Tadalafilo Aristo more than once a day. Tadalafilo Aristo 10 and 20 mg will be used before expected sexual activity and are not recommended for continuous daily use.

It is essential to inform you that Tadalafilo Aristo is not effective if there is no sexual stimulation. Therefore, you and your partner should stimulate yourselves in the same way as you would without taking a medication for erectile dysfunction.

Consuming alcohol may affect your ability to achieve an erection and may temporarily lower your blood pressure. If you have taken or are planning to take Tadalafilo Aristo, avoid excessive alcohol consumption (blood alcohol level of 0.08% or higher), as it may increase the risk of dizziness when standing up.

If you take more Tadalafilo Aristo than you should

Consult your doctor. You may experience adverse effects described in the section 4“Possible adverse effects”.

If you forgot to take Tadalafilo Aristo

Take your dose as soon as you remember, but do not take a double dose to compensate for the missed doses. You should not take Tadalafilo Aristo more than once a day.

If you have any other questions about the use of this medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
