Generic vs Brand Name PDE5s

So I’ve just received some Tadalafil today AKA Cialis but for the first time it’s not Eli Lilly but a generic version made by TEVA.

It’s on UK NHS (National Health Service) prescription so I’m assuming it’s perfectly effective.

But I’m wondering, to anyone that knows for sure or has experience...

Is the efficacy and action exactly the same?

Thank you!!!

Really need help on this one.

Thanks mate.

Did you use the Eli Lilly ones originally then?

Same here.

Okay. Thanks a lot. As long as the action and efficacy is just the same, I’m happy.

There’s just something about receiving a brand new pill that gets to the mind, know what I mean?

Thanks!

I receive a non PDE5 medication from CVS/Caremark. When I peeled off the Caremark label I discovered that it was manufactured in a lab in India. When I called Caremark for an explanation, I was advised that the product and the lab have been checked by the FDA and approved.

Since moving onto NHS generic branded Tadalafil, I have been issued with
    Teva
    Milpharm
    Mylar

All seem fine.

Any other UK users with brand names to add to the list?

Most consistent I ever found was Tadacip, but my feeling was that it was about 80% effective vs Cialis
