Types of Cialis Generics and Differences Between Them

Cialis is the greatest rival of Viagra. The original version of the medication is produced by American pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly Inc., but nowadays there are tons of generics (untrademarked meds) on the market, although there are fewer of them compared to Viagra (sildenafil).

Tadalafil

This is a common name for Cialis generics. For instance, Teva company (headquartered in Israel) sells unpatented medications containing 2.5 to 20 mg of tadalafil (under the same name). 2.5 mg strength has a round form and white color with markings 3016 and TEVA.

5mg tablet is yellow-colored with inscription 3017 and so on. Similar generics are also produced by such companies as Actavis, Alembic Pharmaceuticals, Amneal Pharmaceuticals LLC, Milpharm, DR.REDDY'S, Lupin, Macleods Pharms, and Zydus.

Cialis Super Active and Cialis Professional

These are modifications of original Cialis. Super Active formula is sold as gelatin pills, which should be dissolved under tongue. The drugmakers claim that this method of administration provides a more rapid delivery of the active substance to the blood.

Cialis Professional is a classic generic variety produced in the tablet form. It contains stronger formulations when comparing with regular Cialis, which enables more productive help for ED.

Cialis Soft Tabs

These are quick-dissolving non-coated chewable tablets which start to work very quickly. This product is available in corrugated cardboard boxes, each containing 10 tablets (twenty milligrams of tadalafil per tab). Since the drug enters the stomach in a dissolved (chewed) state, it is absorbed much faster than film solid tablets.

Black Cialis

Cialis Black is an enhanced formulation of ‘the Weekend pill’ (that’s how Cialis was dubbed by satisfied patients). This is a high-strength pill which is marked as 800mg but this doesn’t mean that it contains only tadalafil in such a gigantic quantity. It is enriched with some extra components to boost efficiency.

Tadalia – Cialis Oral Strips

This is the novel form of the medicine featuring quick dissolvability in the mouth. Each strip contains 20mg of the active substance and has a mint flavor. It comes in sachets and is convenient in use.

Tadacip

Tadacip pills are manufactured in India by Cipla. They’re considerably less expensive than genuine Cialis. They’re offered in traditional tableted form and have predominantly positive reviews from patients. Cipla is a multinational pharmaceutical company which was founded back in 1935 in Mumbai. Besides anti-impotence medications, it manufactures drugs to treat cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, diabetes mellitus, obesity, etc.

Conclusion

The decision to choose a generic variant of the blockbuster drug is usually a no-brainer. They typically differ in shape, color, and auxiliary components. The effect is the same. Some variants may feature faster onset of action due to better absorbability and / or oral dissolvability, however, this have no influence on level of effectiveness. There is one undisputable fact: generic versions are almost always cheaper than originals.
