I had open‑heart surgery 3 years ago, and I am currently taking Betalock 25, Atorva 10, Clopit A75, and Sitglyn M 100/1000. Recently, I’ve been experiencing erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. Can I safely use Magalis 20 (tadalafil) occasionally, once or twice a month if needed?

Have a query?

It is important to be cautious when considering tadalafil (Magalis 20) after open-heart surgery and while on your current medications.
Your history of open-heart surgery suggests significant cardiovascular disease management. Your medications—Metoprolol (a beta-blocker), Atorvastatin (a cholesterol-lowering statin), Aspirin plus Clopidogrel (blood thinners), and Metformin with Sitagliptin (for diabetes)—indicate ongoing treatment for heart health, blood clot prevention, and blood sugar control.
Tadalafil can affect blood pressure and interact with heart medications. Since you are on Metoprolol and dual antiplatelet therapy, and have a history of heart surgery, using tadalafil carries some risks, especially if you have any residual heart symptoms or unstable cardiovascular status. It is generally contraindicated with nitrates and certain blood pressure medications, but your current meds do not include nitrates. However, caution is still advised because tadalafil can cause blood vessel dilation and lower blood pressure, which might be risky in your context.
Consult your cardiologist or a specialist in cardiovascular medicine to ensure safe management of erectile dysfunction in your situation.
