Cialis and tadalafil are the same medication, with tadalafil being the generic version of Cialis. They are both used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) and the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

• Cialis is a brand-name medication that was first approved by the FDA in 2003. It comes in tablets that can be taken as needed or once daily.
• Tadalafil is the generic version of Cialis. It was first approved by the FDA in 2018. Tadalafil is available in tablets that can be taken as needed or once daily.

The main difference between Cialis and Tadalafil is the price. Cialis is typically more expensive than tadalafil. However, there are many generic brands of tadalafil available, so you may be able to find a lower price.
