In this segment Dr. Anne Truong MD cautions viewers against the indefinite daily use of low‑dose Cialis for erectile dysfunction (ED). She emphasizes that Cialis should not be a blanket solution; instead, patients need to investigate the root cause of their ED, particularly whether it stems from impaired blood flow. Dr. Truong outlines lifestyle interventions—improving diet, regular exercise, moderating alcohol intake, quitting smoking, and establishing a consistent sleep routine—as first‑line strategies. She warns that taking Cialis every day for decades carries the same risk of side effects as any chronic medication, and therefore long‑term daily use is not advisable.

So if you're taking Cialis low dose, you're taking it for a shit. But maybe you need to be looking at why you have ED. And maybe is it a blood flow problem? Then if it's a blood flow problem, then you need to fix your diet and your exercise and moderate your alcohol, stop smoking, and a good sleep routine. But I wouldn't advise taking it every day until the day you die after 40, because every medication does— has a side effect.
