# Tadalafil Overview Tadalafil is a medication used to treat erectile dysfunction and other conditions in adults. It works by relaxing blood vessels and increasing blood flow to help men achieve and maintain erections. This medicine comes in different strengths and can be taken either as needed before sexual activity or as a daily dose. Your doctor will determine the right dose and schedule for your specific situation. It's important to know some key safety facts about tadalafil before taking it. Never combine this drug with nitrate medications (used for chest pain) or certain blood pressure medicines, as this combination can dangerously lower your blood pressure. Be careful when drinking alcohol while taking tadalafil, and tell your doctor about all other medications you're taking, especially those for high blood pressure or infections. Some medicines can change how tadalafil works in your body, so your dose may need to be adjusted. Always follow your doctor's instructions and report any unusual side effects or health concerns.
