*CIALIS* an why its also used by so many Body Builders

it's probably a money grab, but here you go:
Melanoma Skin Cancer Side Effect Associated With Erectile Dysfunction (ED) Drugs Cialis, Levitra, Viagra, Staxyn, And Stendra, As Well As PAH Medications Revatio And Adcirca

According to an April 2014 medical journal article, Viagra (sildenafil), the most popular and well-known drug prescribed for male erectile dysfunction (ED), appears to increase the risk for malignant melanoma — but not other skin cancers like cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas nor basal cell carcinomas.

The four other brand name ED drugs that are phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitors, Cialis(tadalafil), Levitra (vardenafil), Staxyn(vardenafil), and Stendra (avanafil) are probably associated with an increased risk of melanoma skin cancer, too.

Cialis is also prescribed sometimes when doctors see the signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Two other phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitors are Revatio (sildenafil) and Adcirca(tadalafil). These drugs are prescribed for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

Essentially, the active ingredients sildenafil, tadalifil, vardenafil, and avanafil which are found in these ED, BPH, and PAH drugs act by inhibiting the phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5). Experimental in vitro studies show that PDE5 inhibition augments tumor cell invasiveness. In turn, this effect seems related to an apparentmelanoma skin cancer side effect for all of the brand name drugs with these active ingredients:

  1. Sildenafil: Viagra and Revatio
  2. Tadalafil: Cialis and Adcirca
  3. Vardenafil: Levitra and Staxyn
  4. Avanafil: Stendra
The recent medical study finding which indicates an association between each of these PDE5 inhibitor drugs with invasive melanoma skin cancer might be of particular concern to patients that have used any of these drugs and who may be at an elevated risk of melanoma due to a history of:

  • extensive sun exposure;
  • basal or squamous cell skin cancers;
  • Parkinson disease (which causes autonomic erectile dysfunction and is associated with elevated risk of melanoma); or,
  • other family members diagnosed with melanoma.
We are currently investigating cases of melanoma in men who used Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, Staxyn, or Stendra as well as men and women who used Revatio or Adcirca, as possible drug injury lawsuits against the responsible pharmaceutical companies. For example:

Levitra – Melanoma – 62 yr old man
Cialis – Melanoma – 60 yr old man
Cialis – Malignant Melanomas (three) – 64 yr old man
Cialis – Melanoma Skin Cancer – 55 yr old man
Viagra / Cialis – Melanoma – 48 yr old man
Viagra – Melanoma – 45 yr old man
Cialis – Malignant Melanoma – 39 yr old man
Cialis – Malignant Melanoma – 60 yr old man
Cialis – Melanoma – 60 yr old man
Cialis – Metastasized Melanoma – 67 yr old man

Do you guys think this is something we need to take into consideration? I been taking cialis and love it , but this has me thinking.

Ofcourse it's something you need to take in to consideration... my personal opinion is that these peeps could have been pre disposed to this type of cancer, could have been a lot of variables involved... or, it could be spot on in saying these drugs can increase risk.... not many things we put in our body don't increase the risk of something, and every substance on the face of the earth is known to cause cancwr in the state of california...
I'm just saying... risk vs reward.... yearly checkups take care of your body....
 
Since I've used cialis I swear by it. Amazing drug, one of the best mg for mg aids in a body builder.

Cancer is caused from free radicals or mutated cells in the body. Increase your anti oxidents.

I personally take several grams of lyposomal vitamin c. ( this is much different than ascorbic acid vitamin c)

Like @ryno said you don't know their diet, excersisize etc. and in today's world most Americans are living a sedentary lifestyle behind a computer for work and go home and eat potato chips or pre boxed foods with tons of preservatives with zero excersize.

There are plenty of studies showing sun screen causes cancer as well. So which poison do we pick?

I get these benefits from arginine and citrulline
Vasodilator and a vasodilator + citrulline having similar effects shouldn't surprise you...? However, I assure you, Cialis is more intense and last about 3 days. Also, arginine has a tendency to upset users' stomachs at the necessary amounts... Just a VS. between the two.

I agree with you 100%. I ordered some cialis myself. I was just saying I get good results with just arginine and citrulline for those who don't want to take the leap to cialis. Or maybe for those coming off cialis
 
I take 10-15 grams of argenine. And sometimes I'll do 10 grams argenine and 5 grams citruline. Incredible pump for sure.

I still like me some cialis too though.

This is an epidemiological study which can't show causation only correlation.

IMO, this study is nothing to worry over. Think of your average Viagra/cialis user:

Older male, has seen sun exposure for decades, many older gents retire down south where the sun is stronger, they may not use sun block, etc etc.

It's a random correlation similar to how homicide rates rise when ice cream sales rise.
 
The Big Benefits of Cialis for Bodybuilding
b0eeb6d7de3ad8b08f1b5ffcad166216.jpg


When a lot of guys think of a drug like Cialis, the first thing that comes to mind is trouble getting an erection.
They probably think it’s some pill that is made for old men or guys with erectile dysfunction.
This is probably a thought that would come to mind even quicker if they saw it advertised in a fitness magazine.
I can see where it’d be easy to think “yea they advertise Cialis here because all of these guys who use steroids can’t get their dick hard anymore”.
Cialis (Tadalifil) has HUGE, HUGE benefits for the aging male, and especially the aging male who is into hormone replacement and bodybuilding!!
For starters, Cialis works by increasing blood flow throughout the body. This IS NOT just in the penis and strictly a sexual deal here.
Cialis improves blood flow everywhere!!
This makes it heart healthy and the best analogy I could give would be like replacing your air filter every time it gets dirty. This improved blood flow effects many tissues, including the brain.
With improved blood flow comes better pumps in the gym as well. Cialis is a highly underrated addition to any bodybuilding regimen when it comes to nutrient transport and cell volumization!!
Cialis reduces inflammation in the body.
Inflammation is something that bodybuilders constantly deal with due to muscle cell damage and stress.
It has been proven through studies that our measure of inflammation (C-reactive protein measure) drastically improves when taking Cialis, and this is most largely due to Cialis preventing plaque buildup in our arteries. This process reduces risks of cardiovascular disease in a major way!!
Cialis improves testosterone:estrogen ratio.
Cialis improves the testosterone:estrogen ratio by up to 30%. That improvement is definitely beneficial to the aging male and certainly beneficial to those on testosterone replacement therapy.
As some of you may know, long term testosterone administration can cause increases in estrogen balance as well, which is why those using test for replacement usually go on arimadex too. You may find that you can get by on less arimadex when you’re using Cialis. Along with the improved balance of test:estrogen comes an increased testosterone level as well!!
What else does Cialis do?
Well, let’s get into improved blood pressure next. Taking Cialis fights hypertension and can definitely benefit someone with high blood pressure or someone who has normal blood pressure but wants to make it even better. This is yet another huge benefit of using Cialis while on testosterone or any other steroid that can cause BP elevation.
A big fear of prescribing testosterone to patients is increased risk of prostate enlargement. Cialis reduces these risks by relaxing the smooth muscles of the prostate upon regular administration. This is primarily how it works as a sexual drug as well.
Another benefit of Cialis (and definitely a benefit I experience) –*it almost acts like an anti-depressant.
I just feel better when I’m on it and before I read about this benefit I was questioning it myself, because it seemed like I was always in a better mood when I was using Cialis.
So as you see, Cialis is so much more than just a sexual performance drug!! When I got on it daily the first thing I thought was “holy shit, why aren’t more bodybuilders talking about Cialis in their cycles?”
I mean, it’s a relatively inexpensive addition to any cycle and it’s too cheap not to use it alongside hormone replacement!!
What dosage do I take if using Cialis daily for long term health benefits?
A dosage of 5-7.5mg/day is all you need!!
This is enough to get all of the benefits I’ve mentioned, and it’s enough to get harder and better quality erections too. From my experience on it, orgasms feel stronger too.
I’m sharing this information because I had no idea of all of the benefits of Cialis until my Doctor told me about it and I looked more into it. I always thought it was just some sex type thing myself.
But now that I know the real deal and how great this is long term, I’m proud to be a Cialis user!
Thanks for the info man
 
And what does it for women specifically, both in and out of the gym?
Same as what it does for guys. Except for increasing bloodflow to penis instead it increases bloodflow to the clitoris which increases sensitivity.
 
Thoughts on using the generics for Cialis that can be found on plenty of sources or the actual prescription?

Prescription is very pricey and I've used both script and generic without much of a difference in what was expected from use.

Just curious if what most are using is actually generic.

Here's the thing that's tricky about generics when your talking dick pills...
Name brand are obviously tested and fda approved vs all these other brands coming in from India and all over. The ingredients are cheap and the reason your paying top dollar for name brands is because of its patend.
I'm not saying all generics are as good as name brand but most , at least as far as cialis is concerned is as good and sometimes better.
The thing we don't know with some of the genrics, is what else is in them and that can be very scary
I'm gonna butcher this name, but valdista...... and apple biotec are my two favorite generic brands and they are available for less than 2 dollars per pill. Hope this helps

I buy boxes of Kamagra in gel form when I'm in Thailand. Each gel packet has 100mg of sildenafil citrate - 50 packets per box - 750B to 800B per box, which is around $22 USD.

That stuff is the real deal, made by Ajanta in India. IIRC, the Indian and Thai authorities didn't honor the original patents (perhaps because the original product was sold for $15 a pop, too steep for horny Indians and Thais perhaps) and let generics onto their markets.

Just an FYI if you pass through Bangkok.
