Description
At Medicyy, we understand the importance of accessing genuine, high-quality medication. Our UK-made Cialis tablets offer Pakistani customers the assurance of authentic tadalafil products manufactured to the highest pharmaceutical standards. Whether you choose branded Cialis or UK-manufactured generic alternatives, you can trust in our commitment to quality, safety, and discretion.
Understanding Branded Cialis vs UK-Made Generic Tadalafil
Branded Cialis
Originally developed by Eli Lilly and Company, branded Cialis contains the active ingredient tadalafil. This medication has been extensively tested and clinically proven for treating erectile dysfunction, unlike unregulated alternatives such as Dragon Dooz Delay Spray. The branded version maintains consistent formulation standards and comes with the original manufacturer's quality assurance.
UK-Made Generic Tadalafil
Since the Cialis patent expired in November 2017, UK and EU-licensed pharmaceutical companies have been able to manufacture generic versions containing the same active ingredient. These UK-made generics offer:
-
Identical active ingredient (tadalafil) at the same therapeutic concentrations
-
Bioequivalence to the branded product, meaning they work in your body the same way
-
MHRA-approved manufacturing facilities ensuring pharmaceutical-grade quality
-
Cost-effective alternative without compromising on efficacy
-
Same dosage strengths (10mg and 20mg) as branded options
All our generic tadalafil products are manufactured in UK or EU facilities that meet stringent Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards and are regulated by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
How Tadalafil Works in Your Body
Tadalafil belongs to a class of medications called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors. Here's how it supports natural physiological processes:
-
Mechanism: Helps relax blood vessels in specific areas by inhibiting the PDE-5 enzyme
-
Onset: Typically begins working within 30-60 minutes of taking
-
Duration: Remains effective for up to 36 hours, earning it the nickname "weekend pill"
-
Natural response: Only works in conjunction with natural arousal - it doesn't cause automatic reactions
This extended window of effectiveness allows for greater spontaneity compared to shorter-acting alternatives like Viga Timing Spray Men, making it a preferred choice for many men seeking treatment for erectile dysfunction.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does tadalafil remain effective?
Tadalafil can remain effective for up to 36 hours after taking, though individual response may vary. This doesn't mean continuous effectiveness, but rather an extended window during which the medication can support natural physiological responses.
Can I take tadalafil with alcohol?
Moderate alcohol consumption is generally acceptable, but excessive alcohol can reduce effectiveness and increase the risk of side effects like dizziness or low blood pressure. Limit alcohol intake when using this medication.

Contact a healthcare professional if side effects persist or worsen. For serious side effects like prolonged erections, chest pain, or sudden vision/hearing loss, seek immediate medical attention.
