There are lots of different original ED medications that can be found today, such as Cialis, Viagra, etc. Also, you can find various generic versions of the popular ED medicines, which allows you to enjoy the therapeutic effects of the original medication at more attractive prices. Cialis Jelly is one of the options that you can consider if you need to improve your erection.

History of Cialis Jelly

In 1991, Glaxo and ICOS united their resources in order to develop a new drug, and in three years, ICOS got a patent for the compound known as IC351. In 1998, the union of two pharmaceutical companies created the Lilly ICOS, LLC. The drug received approval for treating erectile dysfunction from the FDA under the brand name of Cialis in 2003. In 2011, the same drug was approved for treating BPH. In 2017, the original medication lost its patent protection in the USA and Europe, which freed the way for manufacturers of generic versions.

This is how today you can find different generics, including Cialis Professional, Cialis Super Active, etc. Cialis Jelly is one of the generic versions that allow you to enjoy quick ED treatment at a good price.

Differences and Similarities between Cialis Jelly and Other Cialis Versions

There are differences and similarities between Cialis Jelly, the original medication, and other generic versions of this drug. So, what are they?
