Cialis is the original tadalafil brand. Indian companies sell many tadalafil brands, and they differ more in the strengths they list than in the medicine itself.

Daily and as-needed strengths

Reference labels use 2.5 mg or 5 mg once a day for daily treatment and 10 mg or 20 mg before sexual activity. Only some brands list the daily strengths. If you were prescribed daily tadalafil, check that the brand offers the strength you need rather than splitting a 20 mg tablet.

Strengths above the label

Vidalista, Tadalista and Tadarise list 40 mg and 60 mg tablets, and Tadora has listed 40 mg. These exceed the 20 mg maximum. Tadalafil already lasts up to 36 hours, so a bigger dose mainly adds side effects such as headache, back pain and low blood pressure.
