Substance Overview and History

Cialis has brought about changes in the way erectile dysfunction (ED) is treated by providing effectiveness for, up to 36 hours. It was created by ICOS Corporation in the 1990s. Later teamed up with Eli Lilly before receiving FDA approval in 2003. The unique β carboline structure sets it apart from medications like sildenafil enabling it to have an extended half life of 17.5 hours. This longer timeframe allows users more flexibility and spontaneity making it the preferred choice, for individuals looking for versatile and enduring options to treat ED.
