I started taking Cialis the other week and took half a 20mg tablet every two days. It worked great. I'm then got put on cialis 5mg a day and it does not work nearly as well. I have been sick but have stopped taking amoxicillin as of this morning. Cialis is still not as effective. Why might this be?
Brief Answer:
You have been given standard dose regimen

Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.
I understand that your doctor has prescribed you Cialis for erectile dysfunction. Your doctor has rightly started you on half tablet Cialis 20 mg every two days for erectile dysfunction and subsequently decided on Cialis 5 mg daily dosage. This is as per standard dosage regimens to start with.
You may choose to have the Cialis 5 mg tablet in the evening hours for more effectiveness of the medication, however it has been said that the timing of medication has little to do with the effectiveness of the medication when taken as 5 mg daily dosage.
It is important to note that there are other causes alongwith the blood supply to penis which are responsible for a proper erection in males. You may try to reduce your stress and anxiety levels while having sex and spend more time in foreplay.
I reassure you that taking amoxicillin has in no way affected the action of Cialis.
Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
