Common use

Apcalis SX Oral Jelly is primarily indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in adult men. It is used to achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for sexual activity. It may also be prescribed off-label for other conditions as determined by a healthcare provider, such as pulmonary arterial hypertension, though this is less common. It is intended for use only when sexual stimulation occurs.

Dosage and direction

The recommended dose is one 20mg sachet taken orally approximately 15–30 minutes before anticipated sexual activity. Do not exceed one dose in a 24-hour period. Tear open the sachet and consume the jelly directly; no water is needed. It may be taken with or without food, though high-fat meals may delay onset. Do not crush, chew, or mix with other liquids. Always follow the specific instructions provided by your healthcare professional.

Precautions

• Use only under medical supervision; do not self-prescribe.
• Not intended for use by women, children, or adolescents.
• Avoid consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice, as it may increase side effects.
• Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular disease, anatomical deformation of the penis, or conditions predisposing to priapism.
• May cause dizziness or visual changes; avoid driving or operating machinery until effects are known.
• Inform your doctor of any history of kidney or liver impairment, bleeding disorders, or active peptic ulcers.

Contraindications

• Hypersensitivity to Tadalafil or any component of the formulation.
• Concurrent use of nitrates or nitric oxide donors (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide mononitrate).
• History of non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).
• Severe hepatic impairment.
• Unstable angina, recent stroke, myocardial infarction, or life-threatening arrhythmia.
• Hypotension (resting systolic BP <90 mmHg or diastolic BP <50 mmHg).

Possible side effects

Common side effects may include headache, flushing, dyspepsia, nasal congestion, back pain, myalgia, and dizziness. Less frequently, visual disturbances, palpitations, and gastroesophageal reflux may occur. Rare but serious adverse effects include priapism (prolonged erection >4 hours), sudden hearing loss, cardiovascular events, and severe hypotension. Seek immediate medical attention for any severe or persistent symptoms.

Drug interaction

Tadalafil interacts with several medication classes. Concomitant use with nitrates is absolutely contraindicated. Alpha-blockers (e.g., doxazosin) may potentiate hypotensive effects. CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, ritonavir) can increase Tadalafil plasma levels. Antihypertensives, alcohol, and other vasodilators may enhance blood pressure-lowering effects. Always disclose all current medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, to your healthcare provider.

Missed dose

Apcalis SX Oral Jelly is taken on an as-needed basis; there is no regular dosing schedule. Therefore, the concept of a “missed dose” does not apply. Do not take an extra dose to make up for a missed one.

Overdose

Symptoms of overdose may include severe headache, dizziness, fainting, prolonged erection, and pronounced hypotension. In case of suspected overdose, seek emergency medical attention immediately. Supportive measures may include positional management for hypotension and symptomatic treatment. Priapism requires urgent urological intervention to prevent permanent damage.

Storage

Store at room temperature (15–30°C), away from direct light, moisture, and heat. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Do not use after the expiration date printed on the packaging. Once a sachet is opened, use immediately; do not store for later use.
