Taking Cialis and alcohol together

It is said that Cialis should not be taken with alcohol. Actually, taking one glass of wine with Cialis is not dangerous. But, if you take Cialis with an excessive amount of alcohol it can create problems for your health.

If the Cialis is taken with the excessive amount of alcohol, it can make you suffer from the sudden drop in blood pressure which is known as orthostatic hypotension. It can lead you to suffer from a headache, dizziness and sometimes fainting also. This orthostatic hypotension also can cause heart problems.

The main cause of this problem is that Cialis and alcohol both are vasodilators. Vasodilators are defined as the substances which can lower down the blood pressure as they can make the blood vessels wide open. In comparison to other ED pills, this problem is seen with Cialis more often as it stays in our system for a longer time.

This is the result of taking alcohol and Cialis together. So, try to avoid the consumption of alcohol with Cialis. If you cannot leave it, tell your doctor before using Cialis or then also if you are already using Cialis and alcohol.
