What to know

Tadalafil is the active ingredient in Cialis, but a compounded tadalafil product is not the same as an FDA-approved generic or brand drug. Varus does not present compounded tadalafil as equivalent to a generic Cialis product.

If compounded tadalafil is discussed, it is discussed only with clear disclosure that it is not FDA-approved, that clinician screening for contraindications is required, and that prescription decisions are individualized.

How this option is discussed

Tadalafil is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor. Mechanism alone does not eliminate the need for clinician screening, including review of nitrate use and other cardiovascular contraindications.

What happens after this library page

Diagnostics-led review

This library entry points into a program, lab review, or upload-labs workflow rather than direct product checkout.

Clinician assessment

A clinician reviews symptoms, medical history, medications, contraindications, and any uploaded or ordered lab results.

Care plan first

Treatment is discussed only after a care plan exists and the next step is clinically clear.

Follow-up and monitoring

Monitoring cadence, refill timing, and additional diagnostics depend on the care plan rather than the public library page.

Compounded PDE5 disclosure

  • Compounded tadalafil and compounded sildenafil are not FDA-approved and are not the same as FDA-approved generic or brand drugs.
  • PDE5 inhibitors are contraindicated with nitrates and require clinician review of cardiovascular history and medication use.
