That's easy to fix, in FuzzyOcr.words change the line to:

cialis::0.1

Just to make the answer complete, most people probably already know this, the
above tells FuzzyOcr to match with high certainty; the example you name does
have 5 of the 6 letters of the word in order, so it is no wonder it matches --
you may even have to lower the 0.1 to 0.01 .

In general I use a changed word list with short words and a few other words that
are (mis)matched easily using the lower fuzzy factor (higher certainty).  A few
other words I use with a high fuzzy factor.
