1.Nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate): Cialis and nitrates both lower blood pressure. Taking them together can cause a significant and potentially life-threatening drop in blood pressure (hypotension), leading to dizziness, fainting, or even heart attack or stroke. It is contraindicated to use Cialis with nitrates or recreational "poppers" (amyl nitrites).
2.Alpha-blockers (e.g., prazosin, terazosin, tamsulosin): Both Cialis and alpha-blockers relax blood vessels, which can lead to excessive blood pressure reduction when used together. This may result in dizziness, fainting, or orthostatic hypotension (a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing). If needed, your doctor may adjust the dosage or recommend spacing the medications.
3.Other antihypertensive drugs (e.g., atenolol, propranolol, enalapril, lisinopril): Cialis can enhance the blood-pressure-lowering effects of these medications. While this interaction is usually less severe than with nitrates or alpha-blockers, it can still cause dizziness or fainting in sensitive individuals. Close monitoring of blood pressure is recommended.
Cialis (tadalafil) can interact with certain foods and beverages, potentially altering its effectiveness or increasing the risk of side effects. Here are the key drug-food interactions to be aware of:

You are required to complete a short medical consultation questionnaire that asks for any medications that you are prescribed from your GP and will indicate the medications that can’t be taken alongside Tadalafil.
There are several medicines which should not be taken concurrently with Tadalafil. Medicines which can have potentially serious interactions with Tadalafil include :-
• Any alpha-blocker medicines e.g. doxazosin (Cardura), alfuzosin (Xatral), tamsulosin, terazosin, or Flomax, that you can buy in the pharmacy. (These medicines may be used to treat prostate problems or high blood pressure).
• Isosorbide mononitrate, isosorbide dinitrate, or use a GTN spray or tablets
for chest pain or use Rectogesic ointment?
• Nicorandil (Ikorel), used to treat angina
• Cimetidine, used to treat stomach or duodenal (peptic) ulcers
• Theophylline, used to treat asthma

Read available consultation questionnaireTadalafil is the generic version of the PDE5 type 2 inhibitor which is a prescribed medication that can’t be taken alongside other medicine. It's a COX 5 inhibitor which stops at the muscle-penetral type and can also be used to treat type 2 diabetes, hypertension and prostate problems.
Tadalafil is taken orally from tablets or pills which you can’t take as it can’t affect the muscle-penetration. It is usually prescribed in lower doses for both conditions.
Because the market for Tadalafil is extremely strong, the only other branded medication that can be found with a generic manufacturer’s licence is PDE5 inhibitors. Tadalafil can’t be found in the table above.
Tadalafil is the active ingredient in the two most common prescription medicines, Cialis and Tadalafil. Tadalafil and Cialis are both lower cost generic medicines with a generic manufacturer licence. As the generic can’t be found, no branded Tadalafil can
Tadalafil and other medicines should not be taken with each other. There are some medications that can cause dangerous drops in blood pressure,- and it should be taken with each of the medicines mentioned in the patient information questionnaire. If you’re prescribed Tadalafil and have further questions about it, then we’ll admit that you will most likely need to take it with some other medication. However, if the same medications can interact with Tadalafil, the best medication for you is to start with a lower dose and gradually increase the dosage.

Vardenafil belongs to a class of drugs known as PDE5 inhibitors. Vardenafil works by relaxing the muscles in the walls of the blood vessels in the penis. This increases blood flow into the penis, which is necessary for an erection.
Vardenafil acts by increasing the activity of the PDE5 enzyme. It has several actions:
The effect of Vardenafil lasts for up to 36 hours.
Vardenafil is used to treat erectile dysfunction and benign prostatic hyperplasia, which are both conditions affecting male reproductive functions.
It increases blood flow to the penis and allows for an erection when sexual arousal is triggered.
Vardenafil is approved by the FDA in the treatment of erectile dysfunction and benign prostatic hyperplasia, as well as pulmonary arterial hypertension and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
