I'm really curious about something. I took 20mg of tadalafil about four days ago and noticed that my usual heart rate, which is in the 70s or 80s, has dropped to the 60s. Could tadalafil be causing this change in heart rate? Should I be concerned?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Tadalafil, commonly known as Cialis, is not typically known to directly reduce heart rate as a common side effect. However, it is possible for some individuals to experience changes in heart rate as a result of using tadalafil. In your case, the decrease in heart rate from the 70-80s range to the 60s range could be a potential effect of tadalafil. It is important to monitor your heart rate and if you have any concerns or experience any other unusual symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm really worried about what my doctor mentioned in my last appointment. He said something about my heart working at only 25%, and I'm not sure what that means. Is he correct? What should I do next?
The doctor's assessment of your heart functioning at 25% is indicative of a condition known as heart failure. In such cases, medications like Carvedilol (Coreg) at a starting dose of 3.125 mg twice daily can be prescribed to help improve heart function and symptoms. Additionally, medications like Lisinopril (Zestril) at a starting dose of 2.5-5 mg once daily can also be beneficial in managing heart failure. It is important to follow your doctor's advice closely and attend regular follow-up appointments for monitoring and adjustments to your treatment plan.
