Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Tadalafil 5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a compounded medication that is used to treat a variety of health conditions. This formulation is a liquid dosage form in which the active ingredient, Tadalafil, is uniformly dispersed throughout a liquid medium, creating a homogeneous mixture for administration. Tadalafil is a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor, and in this formulation, it is suspended in a vehicle of sorbitol, glycerin, and purified water.

This medication is primarily used to treat erectile dysfunction, pulmonary arterial hypertension, and benign prostatic hyperplasia. In the treatment of erectile dysfunction, Tadalafil 5 mg/ml Oral Suspension works by increasing blood flow to the penis, thereby facilitating an erection. For pulmonary arterial hypertension, it functions by relaxing the blood vessels in the lungs, which improves blood flow. In the case of benign prostatic hyperplasia, it works by relaxing the muscles in the prostate, thereby improving urine flow.

Tadalafil 5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a appropriate treatment for these health conditions. However, it is crucial to note that this medication should not be taken in conjunction with nitrates, as this can lead to a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Similarly, it should not be consumed with alcohol, as this can heighten the risk of side effects.

At Bayview Pharmacy, we are a team of experienced compounding pharmacists dedicated to meeting your medication needs. If you have any queries about Tadalafil 5 mg/ml Oral Suspension or any other compounded medications, we encourage you to reach out to us. We are here to provide you with the information and support you need to manage your health effectively.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Tadalafil 5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a compounded medication designed to treat a variety of conditions including erectile dysfunction, pulmonary arterial hypertension, and benign prostatic hyperplasia. This medication functions by relaxing the muscles within the walls of blood vessels, allowing them to expand and increase blood flow to the penis. This enhanced blood flow aids in achieving and maintaining an erection.

In the context of pulmonary arterial hypertension, Tadalafil 5 mg/ml Oral Suspension operates by relaxing the blood vessels in the lungs, enabling them to expand and increase blood flow. This action helps to decrease pressure in the lungs and improve symptoms associated with this condition.

For benign prostatic hyperplasia, this medication works by inhibiting the action of certain hormones in the prostate, which assists in reducing the size of the prostate and improving symptoms related to this condition.

Tadalafil 5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is administered orally, typically once a day. It is crucial to take this medication at the same time each day to maintain a consistent level of the medication in the body. Following the instructions provided by your doctor or pharmacist when taking this medication is of utmost importance.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
