Pfizer Canada has received approval for its new Cialis-based erectile dysfunction treatment, the world’s first drug to treat impotence, but the company is awaiting the product’s expected approval.
The Cialis-based erectile dysfunction treatment, which has been under patent for more than a decade, will be the first to win approval from Health Canada, the Canadian Government, and Health Canada’s other major drug manufacturers. The Canadian patent on the erectile dysfunction drug will expire in July 2024. In addition, the drug’s manufacturer, Pfizer Canada, has filed a patent application with Health Canada for a generic version for the drug.
“Pfizer Canada is proud to partner with Health Canada and the other drug manufacturers to market and manufacture a generic version of Cialis,” said Dr. David A. Hepp, president and chief executive officer of Pfizer Canada. “Pfizer’s new drug will be the first product that Pfizer Canada can produce to treat erectile dysfunction in Canada.”

Pfizer Canada submitted the product to Health Canada in July 2024 with the initial approval date of March 1. The company is not yet releasing the generic version of the drug. The Canadian patent on the erectile dysfunction drug expires in the spring of 2025.
The Cialis-based erectile dysfunction treatment will be available in Canadian pharmacies from July 2024. Pfizer Canada is the world’s first drug company to be able to produce the product from a generic drug, and has previously been the first drug company to manufacture the Cialis-based erectile dysfunction treatment, but is yet to complete the process.
According to Pfizer Canada, the product is expected to be priced at $1.25 per pill. Pfizer Canada did not respond to requests for comment.
Cialis is also currently being sold as an oral tablet.
The product will be available in Canada for approximately $1.50 per pill, with the price tag of $1.20 per pill. A generic version of Cialis will also be available in the United States in a month’s time.

1.Nitrates (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate): Cialis and nitrates both lower blood pressure. Taking them together can cause a significant and potentially life-threatening drop in blood pressure (hypotension), leading to dizziness, fainting, or even heart attack or stroke. It is contraindicated to use Cialis with nitrates or recreational "poppers" (amyl nitrites).
2.Alpha-blockers (e.g., prazosin, terazosin, tamsulosin): Both Cialis and alpha-blockers relax blood vessels, which can lead to excessive blood pressure reduction when used together. This may result in dizziness, fainting, or orthostatic hypotension (a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing). If needed, your doctor may adjust the dosage or recommend spacing the medications.
3.Other antihypertensive drugs (e.g., atenolol, propranolol, enalapril, lisinopril): Cialis can enhance the blood-pressure-lowering effects of these medications. While this interaction is usually less severe than with nitrates or alpha-blockers, it can still cause dizziness or fainting in sensitive individuals. Close monitoring of blood pressure is recommended.
Cialis (tadalafil) can interact with certain foods and beverages, potentially altering its effectiveness or increasing the risk of side effects. Here are the key drug-food interactions to be aware of:
Note:Cialis interactions are only about play nice with your food.
