I was just wondering if anyone is taking this drug for BPH problems and if so how it is working for you? In particular I would like to know how many times you get up nightly to go to the bathroom?   Also what in particular does this drug do that it helps BPH???   As you know the drug was designed for erectile dysfunction.

    Chuck,

    When I first took it I noticed that, now when I take it it's not noticeable.

    By the way I forgot to mention there is a so called "manufacturer's coupon" so you can just take your subscription to the pharmacy and they should be able to get you 1 month's supply for free so you can try it out. Or get coupon first on internet.

    Took 5mg for 30 days and had reasonable success with the BPH issue but had non stop acid reflux so I had to quit and return to tamsulosin.

      Same problem with daily Cialis and reflux however I found a quick and easy fix. Took one OTC Prilosec 60 minutes before breakfast and no reflux problem. If that doesn't work you could try a higher rx dose or combine with other reflux meds.

    Chuck, my urologist is using cialis 5mg daily to treat my bph. It is working very well. I get up once, maybe twice during the night to go to the bathhroom. Used to be really bad before cilais. Using tamsulosin 10mg only, some nights had to get up 5 and 6 times. All feeling of dire urgency to go has disapeared. The side effects are amazing. Sex and frequency has improved dramatically. I have lots of energy through out the day and stay up late like I used to. Having to get up several times during the night had robbed me of my energy.I would be in real trouble if for some reason I could not get this drug. Only down side is some heartburn now and then. I highly recomend it for bph patiens.

      Hi Satisfied,

      I found taking one OTC Prilosec, about an hour before breakfast, eliminated completely my Daily 5mg Cialis hearburn.
