Common use

Apcalis SX Oral Jelly is primarily indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) in adult men. It is suitable for individuals who experience difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual activity. It may also be used off-label, under medical supervision, for pulmonary arterial hypertension, though this is less common. The product is intended only for men with a confirmed diagnosis of ED and should not be used by women or children.

Dosage and direction

The standard recommended dose is one 20mg sachet, taken orally approximately 15–30 minutes before anticipated sexual activity. The jelly should be squeezed directly into the mouth and swallowed without water. Do not exceed one dose in a 24-hour period. The medication may be taken with or without food, though high-fat meals may delay onset. Dosage adjustments may be necessary for elderly patients or those with renal or hepatic impairment—always follow prescribing physician instructions.

Precautions

• Not intended for use by women, adolescents, or children.
• Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular disease, including angina, heart failure, or arrhythmias.
• Avoid use in those with severe hepatic or renal impairment unless advised by a physician.
• Sexual activity may pose cardiac risk; discuss cardiovascular status with a healthcare provider before use.
• Priapism (prolonged erection >4 hours) requires immediate medical attention to avoid permanent damage.
• Do not combine with other erectile dysfunction treatments.

Contraindications

• Hypersensitivity to Tadalafil or any component of the formulation.
• Concurrent use of organic nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide mononitrate) or nitric oxide donors.
• History of non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).
• Severe cardiovascular instability, hypotension, or recent stroke or myocardial infarction.
• Hereditary degenerative retinal disorders.

Possible side effects

Common side effects may include headache, dyspepsia, back pain, myalgia, nasal congestion, flushing, and dizziness. These are generally mild to moderate and transient. Less frequently, visual disturbances, palpitations, or gastrointestinal discomfort may occur. Rare but serious adverse effects include priapism, sudden hearing loss, or cardiovascular events. Discontinue use and seek medical advice if severe or persistent reactions develop.

Drug interactions

• Absolute contraindication with nitrates (can cause severe hypotension).
• Interacts with alpha-blockers (e.g., doxazosin), leading to potential blood pressure drops.
• Caution with CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, ritonavir)—dose reduction may be needed.
• Potential interaction with antihypertensives, resulting in additive hypotensive effects.
• Grapefruit juice may increase Tadalafil plasma concentration—avoid concomitant use.

Missed dose

Apcalis SX Oral Jelly is used on an as-needed basis; there is no regular dosing schedule. A missed dose is not applicable. Do not take an extra dose to make up for a missed opportunity.

Overdose

Symptoms may include severe headache, visual disturbances, syncope, prolonged erection, or pronounced hypotension. In case of suspected overdose, seek immediate medical attention. Supportive measures should be administered; hemodialysis is not expected to significantly eliminate Tadalafil.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep sachets in original packaging until use. Do not freeze. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Discard any damaged or leaking sachets.
