Cialis Together: Over-the-Counter Erectile Dysfunction Relief

Erectile dysfunction (ED) affects millions of men across the UK, with causes ranging from stress and anxiety to physical health conditions. Thankfully, there are effective treatments available, including a newer branded option known as Cialis Together. But what exactly is Cialis Together, how does it work, and is it right for you?

In this blog, we’ll explain everything you need to know about Cialis Together—including how it differs from other ED medications, how to take it safely, and where to access it locally.

 

What Is Cialis Together?

Cialis Together is an over-the-counter version of the well-known ED medication Cialis, which contains the active ingredient tadalafil. Tadalafil is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor that helps improve blood flow to the penis, making it easier to achieve and maintain an erection when sexually stimulated.

What sets Cialis Together apart is that it is now available without a prescription in the UK, following approval from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). This means eligible men can buy it directly from a pharmacy after a short consultation with a pharmacist.

How Does Cialis Together Work?

When sexually aroused, the body releases nitric oxide, which stimulates an enzyme that helps relax the muscles in the blood vessels of the penis. This allows for increased blood flow and an erection. However, in men with ED, this process doesn’t work properly.

Tadalafil, the active ingredient in Cialis Together, enhances this natural response by inhibiting PDE5—an enzyme that can restrict blood flow. As a result, erections become easier to achieve and longer-lasting during sexual activity.

Unlike some other ED medications that must be taken shortly before sex, Cialis Together works for up to 36 hours, earning it the nickname “the weekend pill.”

Who Can Take Cialis Together?

Cialis Together is intended for adult men aged 18 and over who have experienced erectile dysfunction. You must be deemed suitable by a pharmacist before purchasing it. During a pharmacy consultation, you’ll be asked about:

• -> Your general health and medical history

• -> Any medications you’re currently taking

• -> Any history of heart conditions or low blood pressure

• -> Whether you’ve experienced any adverse reactions to ED treatments before

If any risks are identified, the pharmacist may advise an alternative treatment or recommend seeing your GP.

Who Should Not Take Cialis Together?

You should not take Cialis Together if you:

• -> Take nitrates for chest pain (angina)

• -> Use other medications for ED

• -> Have severe heart or liver problems

• -> Have recently had a stroke or heart attack

• -> Have low blood pressure or uncontrolled high blood pressure

Always disclose your full medical history during your consultation to ensure safe use.

How to Take Cialis Together

• -> Take one tablet at least 30 minutes before sexual activity.

• -> Do not take more than one tablet in 36 hours.

• -> Swallow the tablet whole with water.

• -> You do not need to take Cialis Together with food, but avoid excessive alcohol as it may reduce the effectiveness of the medication and increase side effects.

Because of its long duration of action, Cialis Together provides greater flexibility compared to other ED tablets that need to be timed closely to intimacy.

Cialis Together vs Viagra: What’s the Difference?

While both Cialis Together and Viagra (sildenafil) treat ED, there are a few key differences:

Feature	Cialis Together (Tadalafil)	Viagra (Sildenafil)
Onset	30–60 minutes	30–60 minutes
Duration	Up to 36 hours	Up to 4–6 hours
Meal impact	Less affected by food	May be delayed with heavy meals
Dosage	10mg single-use OTC tablet	Usually 50mg or 100mg

If spontaneity is important to you, Cialis Together may be the preferred choice.
