How Cialis Lozenges Work: Mechanism of Action

Cialis lozenges, a formulation of tadalafil, work by targeting a specific enzyme in the body.

Specifically, they inhibit phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). This enzyme normally breaks down cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), a molecule crucial for smooth muscle relaxation.

    By inhibiting PDE5, Cialis lozenges increase cGMP levels. Elevated cGMP promotes relaxation in the smooth muscles of the blood vessels in the penis. This increased blood flow facilitates the erectile process.

The lozenge formulation allows for quick absorption of tadalafil through the oral mucosa, leading to faster onset of action compared to other delivery methods. This rapid absorption is a key advantage for many users. This process differs from swallowing a tablet, where absorption is primarily through the gastrointestinal tract.

Tadalafil is absorbed directly into the bloodstream. The drug reaches its target within a shorter time frame. This contributes to quicker onset of effects.

Remember, individual responses to medication vary. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice and to address any concerns before using Cialis or any other medication.
