Tadalafil (Generic Cialis®) is used to treat erectile dysfunction

Cialis™ is approved for the treatment of men who have difficulty having and maintaining an erection, otherwise known as impotence. If the nerves or blood vessels associated with this process aren't working properly, a man may not be able to get an erection. Cialis™ increases blood flow to the penis, so that when a man is sexually aroused, he can get and keep an erection. When the sexual encounter is over, the erection goes away.

Sexual dysfunction:
Sexual dysfunction can take any shape from low sex drive to penile erectile dysfunction (ED). Though erectile dysfunction or impotence is a much discussed male sexual dysfunction problem, premature ejaculation (PE) often remains neglected and un-treated.

PE can occur to any age group and under any situation. Young guys find it most difficult to establish a relationship with a woman because of this and they find themselves not confident enough to perform well.

Premature Ejaculation (PE) can greatly affect a man and his partner’s sexual satisfaction, ability to maintain relationship and of course a man's self confidence. Approximately 27-34 percent of men between all age groups get affected by PE. Most of the men ejaculate sooner then they expect.

Dapoxetine:
Dapoxetine (Generic Priligy®) belongs to a group of medicines called "selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors" (SSRIs), used to treat premature ejaculation (PE) in men between 18 and 64 years old.

Dapoxetine is recently approved in Finland, Sweden, Austria, Portugal and Germany, Italy and Spain and is similarly expecting approval in several other EU countries.

Tadalafil Citrate:
Tadalafil (Generic Cialis®) is used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence; inability to get or keep an erection) in men. Tadalafil is in a class of medications called phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors.

Tadalafil treats erectile dysfunction by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. This increased blood flow can cause an erection.

Take only under doctors directions.
