They\u2019re also both approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to help with symptoms of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), high blood pressure due to narrowing in the blood vessels in the lungs. Cialis and Viagra both have generic versions, tadalafil and sildenafil, respectively. The brand-name ED medications have a significant price difference to consider.

Insurance plans generally don\u2019t cover Cialis for ED, but may offer coverage if it\u2019s prescribed for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH, an enlarged prostate). \u201cCialis and Viagra are rarely covered for ED because most insurers classify it as a lifestyle indication.

For example, Cialis (tadalafil) may be used daily at lower doses for more spontaneous activity or at higher doses as needed, while Viagra (sildenafil) is typically taken on demand.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cialis is approved by the FDA to treat ED, BPH, and PAH, while Viagra is approved to treat ED and PAH. For ED, Cialis can be taken daily or as needed, and Viagra can be taken as needed. For PAH, Cialis is taken once daily, and Viagra is taken three times a day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultimately, the best and most affordable treatment for you can be determined by working with your healthcare provider to consider your health history and coverage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-to-save-on-cialis-or-viagra\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to save on Cialis or Viagra<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Though insurance coverage for Cialis and Viagra is limited, there are still ways to save on the cost of your prescription. One way is to use SingleCare coupons, which can reduce the cost of ED medication significantly. SingleCare coupons are free to get and easy to use at many retail pharmacies. To get one, search for your prescription on the SingleCare website or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/use-singlecare-app\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">app<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and select the pharmacy you want to use it at. Show your coupon to the pharmacist when you check out to save.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/resources\/mens-health\"><b>Men\u2019s Health Coupons &amp; Resources<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also get your prescription in bulk or look into prescription assistance programs like Medicare Extra Help. Healthcare professionals may recommend switching to generic medications to save. \u201cGeneric is just as good. FDA-approved generics are bioequivalent: same molecule, same effect. There is no clinical reason to pay for the brand name,\u201d Dr. Houman says.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"bottom-line-is-cialis-or-viagra-more-affordable\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bottom line: Is Cialis or Viagra more affordable?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Between the two ED treatments, Cialis is generally more affordable than Viagra. However, it\u2019s important to know that these medications are recommended for different purposes, and talking to your healthcare provider can help determine which one is best for you. \u201cCost and access have improved significantly with generic options, but patients should still be guided toward appropriate dosing and expectations to avoid misuse or disappointment with treatment,\u201d Dr. Razdan says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to cost, healthcare providers can help you consider your health conditions, medical history, and other drug interactions to recommend the best long-term treatment for you. \u201cPlan ahead,\u201d Dr. Houman says. \u201cThese medications are long-term for most men. Build the cost into your healthcare budget and revisit pricing annually; the generic market continues to get more competitive,\u201d he advises.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cialis (tadalafil) and Viagra (sildenafil) are prescription medications in the same class of drugs that treat symptoms of erectile dysfunction (ED).
