Brief Answer:
10 mg per oral standard dose.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I have carefully read your query and understand your concern.
Cialis can be taken as 10 mg PO 30 min before sexual activity with or without food.
The dose can be increased to either 20 mg or decreased to 5 mg on the basis of efficacy and tolerability.
Once a day dosing is usually sufficient.
Thank you.
