What is Avarante?

Avarante is an over-the-counter medicine containing the active ingredient tadalafil 10mg. It provides the same active ingredient and 36-hour duration of action as Cialis Together.

Formulated as a standard tablet swallowed with water, Avarante presents a reliable treatment option for those with a more spontaneous sex life, without being bound by a 4-hour window.

How Does Avarante Work?

Avarante contains tadalafil 10mg - a PDE-5 inhibitor. It works through the same mechanisms as Cialis Together, generic tadalafil, Viagra Connect and sildenafil.

Their action is triggered by sexual stimulation or excitement. Without sexual stimulation, Avarante will not work.

When a patient is sexually stimulated, nerve signals help to relax blood vessels to the penis, increasing blood flow. This increased blood is held in the spongy tissues of the penis, which leads to an erection.

Can I Buy Avarante Without a Prescription?

Yes. Avarante can be purchased over-the-counter. You do not need to book a GP appointment to get a prescription to purchase it.

As a pharmacy medicine however, the sale still needs to be supervised by a pharmacist. When ordering online through Quick Meds, this is done by completing a short questionnaire prior to checkout.

The questionnaire is reviewed by our in-house GPhC-registered pharmacists, ensuring the treatment is safe for you, before proceeding to dispatch in secure, plain packaging.

Who Can Take Avarante?

Avarante is suitable for men aged 18 and over who experience erectile dysfunction. However, some medical conditions and drug interactions means it is not suitable for everyone.

Who Cannot Take Avarante?

Do not take Avarante if any of the following apply to you:

  • Nitrates & Poppers: You take nitrate medicines (e.g., GTN spray, isosorbide mononitrate) for chest pain/angina, or recreational "poppers" (amyl nitrite). Combining tadalafil with nitrates causes a severe and dangerous drop in blood pressure.

  • Riociguat: You take riociguat for pulmonary arterial hypertension.

  • Alpha-Blockers: You take alpha-blockers (e.g., doxazosin, tamsulosin) for prostate problems or high blood pressure, unless authorized by a clinician.

  • Heart & Vascular Conditions: You have severe heart disease, unstable blood pressure, or a recent history of heart attack or stroke.

  • Liver Function: You have severe liver impairment.

  • Eye Disorders: You have hereditary degenerative retinal disorders, such as retinitis pigmentosa, or a history of NAION.

  • No ED Diagnosis: You do not experience erectile dysfunction (this medication is not intended for recreational use).

How To Take Avarante

For optimal results, following the instructions below:

  • Take one 10mg tablet with water, at least 30 minutes before anticipated sexual activity.

  • Do not take more than one tablet in any 24-hour period. Unlike tadalafil daily, Avarante is not intended for continuous daily use.

  • Avoid excess alcohol, as this can also affect your ability to get an erection and reduce treatment effectiveness.

Unlike sildenafil, heavy or high-fat meals do not delay the onset of treatment.

How Quickly Does It Work and How Long Does It Last?

The tablets typically start to take effect within 30 to 60 minutes.

Tadalafil remains active in the body for up to 36 hours. This longer duration of action, compared to sildenafil, allows for natural spontaneity over a weekend, preventing the need to time dosing within a set window. For this reason, all tadalafil tablets are sometimes referred to as ‘the weekend pill.

Side Effects & Precautions

As with any medication, the tablets can cause side effects though not everyone experiences them.

Common Side Effects

The most common side effects, affecting up to 1 in 10 men include:

  • Headache or dizziness.

  • Back pain or muscle aches

  • Facial flushing or hot flushes.

  • Indigestion or nausea

  • Nasal Congestion

Serious Side Effects

More serious side effects and reactions include:

  • An allergic reaction - swelling of the face, tongue, throat or lips with difficulty breathing.

  • Sudden vision loss - partial or complete loss of sight in one or both eyes.

  • Prolonged erection (Priapism) - lasting longer than 4 hours. If this occurs, go straight to A&E to prevent permanent tissue damage.

If you experience any of these, you should stop using the treatment and seek immediate medical attention.
