Always inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs, supplements, and herbal remedies, before using Cialis sublingually or in any other form. This includes nitrates (used to treat chest pain), alpha-blockers (used to treat high blood pressure and enlarged prostate), and certain antifungals. Combining Cialis with these medications can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.
Nitrates and Cialis
Never combine Cialis with nitrates. This combination can lead to severely low blood pressure, dizziness, fainting, and even heart attack. Your doctor needs to be aware of all your medications to ensure your safety.
Other Medications
Certain antibiotics, antivirals, and medications for HIV/AIDS can interact with Cialis, potentially affecting its effectiveness or causing side effects. Grapefruit juice can also interact with Cialis, increasing its concentration in the blood and potentially leading to side effects. Discuss these interactions with your physician to mitigate any potential risks. Always prioritize open communication with your healthcare provider concerning medication interactions.
