CONTRAINDICATIONS of Tadalafil (CIALIS)
Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients listed in section 6.1.
In clinical studies, tadalafil was shown to augment the hypotensive effects of nitrates. This is thought to result from the combined effects of nitrates and tadalafil on the nitric oxide/cGMP pathway. Therefore, administration of CIALIS to patients who are using any form of organic nitrate is contraindicated.
CIALIS must not be used in men with cardiac disease for whom sexual activity is inadvisable. Physicians should consider the potential cardiac risk of sexual activity in patients with pre-existing cardiovascular disease.
The following groups of patients with cardiovascular disease were not included in clinical trials and the use of tadalafil is therefore contraindicated:
- patients with myocardial infarction within the last 90 days,
- patients with unstable angina or angina occurring during sexual intercourse,
- patients with New York Heart Association Class 2 or greater heart failure in the last 6 months,
- patients with uncontrolled arrhythmias, hypotension (< 90/50 mm Hg), or uncontrolled hypertension,
- patients with a stroke within the last 6 months.
CIALIS is contraindicated in patients who have loss of vision in one eye because of non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION), regardless of whether this episode was in connection or not with previous PDE5 inhibitor exposure
The co-administration of PDE5 inhibitors, including tadalafil, with guanylate cyclase stimulators, such as riociguat, is contraindicated as it may potentially lead to symptomatic hypotension (see section 4.5).

An interaction was observed with benserazide, which may lead to increased levels of benserazide and its active metabolite.
Benserazide/levodopa, tolcapone [2] ---> SmPC of [2] of EMA
The plasma concentrations of benserazide observed after co-administration of tolcapone and benserazide-25 mg/levodopa were still within the range of values observed with levodopa/benserazide alone.
Breast-feeding, tolcapone [2] ---> SmPC of [2] of EMA
The safety of tolcapone in infants is unknown; therefore, women should not breast-feed during treatment with Tasmar.
Carbidopa, tolcapone [2] ---> SmPC of [2] of EMA
An interaction was observed with benserazide, which may lead to increased levels of benserazide and its active metabolite.
Catecholamine-O-methyltransferase inhibitors, levodopa ---> SmPC of [tolcapone] of EMA
The consequent increase in dopaminergic stimulation can lead to the dopaminergic adverse reactions observed after treatment with COMT inhibitors.
Catecholamine-O-methyltransferase inhibitors, levodopa/carbidopa ---> SmPC of [tolcapone] of EMA
COMT inhibitors are known to increase the bioavailability of the co-administered levodopa.
Catecholamines, tolcapone [2] ---> SmPC of [2] of EMA
Drugs that increase catecholamines: Since tolcapone interferes with the metabolism of catecholamines, interactions with other drugs affecting catecholamine levels are theoretically possible.
Cytochrome CYP2C9, tolcapone [2] ---> SmPC of [2] of EMA
In an interaction study, tolcapone did not change the pharmacokinetics of tolbutamide. Therefore, clinically relevant interactions involving cytochrome CYP2C9 appear unlikely.
Desipramine, tolcapone [2] ---> SmPC of [2] of EMA

Levodopa, tolcapone [2] ---> SmPC of [2] of EMA
Tasmar, as a COMT inhibitor, is known to increase the bioavailability of the co-administered levodopa. The consequent increase in dopaminergic stimulation can lead to the dopaminergic adverse reactions observed after treatment with COMT inhibitors.
Levodopa/benserazide, tolcapone [2] ---> SmPC of [2] of EMA
Since Tasmar should be used only in combination with levodopa/benserazide and levodopa/carbidopa, the prescribing information for these levodopa preparations is also applicable to their concomitant use with Tasmar.
Levodopa/carbidopa, tolcapone [2] ---> SmPC of [2] of EMA
Since Tasmar should be used only in combination with levodopa/benserazide and levodopa/carbidopa, the prescribing information for these levodopa preparations is also applicable to their concomitant use with Tasmar.
