Clear advice about the ingredient—not just the brand.
An ingredient-led review
A brand change can make an established medicine look unfamiliar. Bring the original label and prescription so the doctor can match the ingredient, strength and schedule instead of relying on tablet colour or packaging.
The same ingredient
Generic or branded
Cialis contains tadalafil. An authorised generic must meet the relevant quality and equivalence requirements; appearance can differ.
Read the relevant guideED is one pathway
Confirm the indication
The reason for treatment matters. A prescription used for another condition should not simply be copied into an ED request.
Read the relevant guidePrevent duplication
Keep the record clear
Record every brand and strength you use. Two differently named boxes can contain the same active medicine.

The distinctions that matter
What to check on your medicine record
Swipe across to read the comparison →| Field | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Ingredient | Look for tadalafil, even if the brand on the box has changed. |
| Strength | Do not identify a dose from tablet colour or shape alone. |
| Schedule | Daily and as-needed use are distinct prescribed plans. |
| Other medicines | Nitrates, riociguat and other ED medicines are particularly important to declare. |

Before your review
Questions in Málaga
Is generic tadalafil necessarily weaker than Cialis?
An authorised generic is assessed against the reference medicine’s quality and equivalence requirements. Discuss the particular licensed product with the pharmacist.
Can I take Cialis as well?
No—not as an additional ED medicine. Cialis already contains tadalafil, so doing so can duplicate treatment.
Does every tadalafil prescription relate to erectile dysfunction?
No. The indication matters, and other treatment contexts may need a different or specialist review.
What if my box looks different in Spain?
Check the ingredient, strength and directions with the pharmacist. Do not rely on packaging or colour to identify treatment.
Can I renew stable treatment online?
You can request a repeat review with named evidence. New symptoms, side effects or dose changes need a fuller consultation.
Who confirms the pharmacy price?
The dispensing pharmacy. Consultation fees do not include medication and do not guarantee supply.

Safety first
Do not combine tadalafil with nitrates or riociguat. An erection lasting four hours or sudden loss of vision or hearing needs immediate care. Call 112 for chest pain or collapse, and tell the emergency team what you took.
