What is Cialis?
Cialis is a prescription medication used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). Its active ingredient is Tadalafil, which belongs to a group of drugs called PDE5 inhibitors. PDE5 inhibitors are clinically proven to help men manage their sexual health. Cialis works by helping the blood vessels in the penis relax to increase blood flow, which allows you to get and keep an erection.
What are the common side effects of Cialis?
Most people tolerate Cialis (Tadalafil) well, but as your body adjusts to any new medication, you might notice some temporary, mild side effects, including:
- Headache
- Facial flushing
- Indigestion
- Nasal congestion
- Muscle or back pain
If any of these side effects become bothersome, your primary care provider can help you adjust your dosage or recommend management strategies. However, although uncommon, men may experience priapism (an erection lasting more than four hours). It is important to seek medical help if you notice this.
Cialis dosage and strengths
Cialis is available as an oral tablet in the following four strengths:
- 2.5 mg
- 5 mg
- 10 mg
- 20 mg

Cialis without a doctor's prescription
Cialis is a prescription medicine and can only be obtained from a pharmacy when you have a valid prescription from a licensed doctor. However, you can still get it without seeing a doctor in person through YDO’s online appointment. It lets you skip the walk-in clinic and get Cialis online from the comfort of home. Our doctors will evaluate your symptoms and medical history. Depending on your lifestyle, they will then issue an online doctor prescription for Cialis daily or as-needed.
Cialis daily vs as needed
- Daily Cialis: You may be prescribed a low dose (2.5 mg or 5 mg) taken once every day to keep the medication active in your system for maximum spontaneity.
- Cialis 'As Needed' (On-Demand Use): This involves taking a higher single dose (10 mg or 20 mg) at least 30 minutes before sexual activity, which provides a long-lasting effect of up to 36 hours.
Same-day Cialis prescription and refill
We understand the ED treatment requires speed and confidence. That’s why we make the process fast. If approved, our licensed healthcare provider will send your online Cialis (Tadalafil) prescription to your preferred local pharmacy the same day.

Frequently asked questions about Cialis
How much does Cialis cost?
The cost of Cialis can vary widely depending on the dosage and whether you choose brand-name Cialis or the generic version, Tadalafil. Brand-name Cialis is generally more expensive, costing around $11–$68 per pill, whereas the generic form can cost as little as a few dollars per pill. Similarly, 20 mg of Cialis will cost you more than a 10 mg pill.
How does Cialis compare to Viagra?
Cialis and Viagra are both PDE5 inhibitor medications, but they differ in how quickly they take effect and how long they last.
Onset of action:
- Cialis begins working in about 30 minutes.
- Viagra takes 30–60 minutes to be effective
Duration of effect:
- Cialis remains effective for up to 36 hours.
- Viagra lasts about 4–6 hours.
Cialis offers a longer window for spontaneous intimacy, while Viagra (Sildenafil) prescription requires more precise timing. It comes down to personal preference, lifestyle, healthcare, and how often you need the ED medication. Talk to your doctor about getting the prescription that meets your needs.
Is Cialis prescribed for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)?
Yes, Cialis is approved to treat BPH (enlarged prostate) in addition to ED. Tadalafil (the active ingredient in Cialis) at a daily low dose can help relieve urinary symptoms of BPH, such as difficulty starting urination, weak stream, or frequent urges to urinate. Make sure you speak to your healthcare provider before starting your Cialis treatment plan for BPH.
Will Cialis make my erection longer or increase penis size?
Cialis isn’t a penis enlargement treatment. It will not permanently increase the size of your penis. It only helps you achieve better blood flow to the erectile tissues when you’re aroused, making it easier to keep an erection. Once the drug wears off, your penis returns to its usual state. In short, Cialis can help you perform better, but it won’t make you physically bigger.
Is 20mg of Cialis equal to 100mg of Viagra?
While both medications treat erectile dysfunction, they have different strengths. The highest dose for Viagra is 100 mg, whereas Cialis tops out at 20 mg. In practice, a 20 mg dose of Cialis provides an effect roughly similar to 50 mg of Viagra, rather than the full 100 mg dose.
Does Cialis expire?
Yes, Cialis does expire. The expiry date is printed on the packaging and typically ranges from two to three years after the manufacturing date. Always check that date before using the medication, and never take it past its expiration. Store your Cialis in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to ensure it remains effective until the printed expiry date.
Can I get Cialis through insurance?
ED meds aren’t covered by insurance and are often considered lifestyle drugs, so patients pay out of pocket. With Your Doctors Online, you can obtain a doctor’s prescription for Cialis at an affordable rate without insurance by choosing one of our flexible subscription plans. We also offer a family plan so you can share coverage with your loved ones. To save on out-of-pocket costs, you can also choose generic Tadalafil. It contains the same FDA-approved active ingredient as Cialis but is available at a lower price.
