Compounded tadalafil troche is a prescription treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED) prepared as a lozenge that dissolves in the mouth. Tadalafil is a PDE5 inhibitor, the same active ingredient as the brand medication Cialis. It works by relaxing blood vessels and improving blood flow to support an erection when you are sexually aroused. Tadalafil is known for its long duration of action, which is why it is sometimes called the weekend option.
As a compounded troche, tadalafil is absorbed through the lining of the mouth, which bypasses first-pass processing in the liver. Some patients and prescribers prefer this route for a potentially faster onset and because it avoids swallowing a tablet. We can also compound tadalafil in combination with other agents when a prescriber directs it, and prepare custom strengths that are not available commercially.
Tadalafil is an FDA-approved medication for erectile dysfunction, though compounded troches are a custom formulation rather than the FDA-approved product. Important safety note: PDE5 inhibitors like tadalafil must not be used with nitrate medications (such as nitroglycerin) or certain other heart medications, because the combination can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Use tadalafil only under a prescriber who can confirm it is safe for you. Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. Every batch is pharmacist-compounded, quality-verified, and shipped nationwide. Prescription required.
