Forzest (tadalafil) is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor. PDE5 inhibitors are used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence). Forzest relaxes muscles and increases blood flow to specific areas of the body.
Forzest is used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) and symptoms of benign prostatic hypertrophy (enlarged prostate).
Forzest may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
