Gel for erectile dysfunction Tadalista super active is a medication that is frequently used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. Unlike ingestible pills, the jelly can be easily scooped out of the teaspoon or placed in the mouth and eaten. Tadalafil is the active ingredient in Tadalista. It belongs to the family of phosphodiesterase type 5 vasodilators. These drugs work because they enlarge blood vessels all over the body, especially in the vaginal areas. An erection results from more blood being able to flow as a result of this. Tadalista is not an aphrodisiac; it can induce an erection.
