Cialis from Eli Lilly is a widely used treatment for erectile dysfunction and benign prostatic hyperplasia that contains the active ingredient tadalafil. This medication is also sold under other names like Exalver, Exal, Tadacip and Megalis. It is supplied as a tablet in strengths ranging from 10, 20, 40, 60 to 80mg.
Buying Cialis online
Generic tadalafil, much of it made in India, is far more affordable than the original brand. This ensures reliable access for expats and those living in areas where finding a well-stocked pharmacy can be difficult.
Is Cialis from SGMeds the original brand?
No. SGMeds ships a generic with the same active ingredient (tadalafil) at the strength you choose, not the original Cialis made by Eli Lilly. We use the brand name so you can find the medicine, and the generic's manufacturer varies with stock.
What is Cialis for?
Cialis is used for erectile dysfunction and an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia).
How is Cialis priced?
Cialis comes in 10, 20, 40, 60 and 80mg strengths, in packs of 10 to 360 tablets. Each option's price is shown on this page in Singapore dollars, converted from US dollars, so the exchange rate can change the final amount. Larger packs work out cheaper per tablet.

How ordering works →What you will receive
Cialis is the originator brand name, made by Eli Lilly. We use it here to identify the medicine only; we are not affiliated with Eli Lilly and do not ship the original Cialis.
- You receive a generic equivalent: the same active ingredient (Tadalafil) at the same dose, mostly recognised Indian branded generics from vetted manufacturers.
- The exact brand supplied depends on what is in stock at the dispatching warehouse.
- A regulated generic matches the original ingredient for ingredient by legal standard.
