Hi everyone,

I’ve been taking daily Cialis (tadalafil) for BPH symptoms. It does help, but it has also caused heartburn. Has anyone tried to treat heartburn caused by tadalafil? My reading of how it all works seems to indicate that it is not due to it causing indigestion, but is due to the relaxing of the smooth muscle that keeps the flap closing the esophagus in place.
