Tadalafil (Cialis) requires in average two hours in order to achieve maximal concentration in comparison with about 50 minutes for sildenafil and vardenafil. Variations in gastro-intestinal absorption of fatty food are explained by maximal concentration in plasma between three PDE5 inhibitors (Levitra, Viagra and Cialis). While combined intake with fatty food, efficiency of Levitra and Viagra may be decreased, but absorption of Cialis is affected neither by fatty food, nor by alcohol. This unique pharmacokinetic feature of Cialis is a result of slow absorption and more long-term elimination half-life.
