Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query
Cialis contains Tadalfil which is a drug used for erectile dysfunction. I recommend you not to use it as it is contraindicated for people in hypotension ( yours was found to be 90/60) and it also contraindicated for people with heart diseases.
I also recommend you to revisit the doctor to reduce the dosage of coversyl.
I hope I was of help to you, if you have any further queries please get back to me
I wish you good health
Regards
