Who qualifies for ED medication?
Our EU-licensed doctors assess several factors to determine if ED medication is appropriate for you. They look at your overall health, medical history, and existing conditions. It's crucial to disclose any heart conditions, blood pressure issues, or other medications you are taking during your online consultation. The doctor ensures the treatment is safe and effective for your specific health profile.
What ED medication actually does (and doesn't do)
ED medications, such as sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis), vardenafil (Levitra), and avanafil (Spedra), are PDE5 inhibitors. They work by increasing blood flow to the penis when you are sexually aroused, making it easier to achieve and maintain an erection. They do not increase libido or provide an instant erection without sexual stimulation. The effects typically last for several hours, depending on the specific medication. They are an effective treatment for many men, helping to restore confidence and improve sexual health.
Side effects and when to stop
While generally well-tolerated, ED medications can have side effects. Common ones include headache, flushing, upset stomach, nasal congestion, and visual disturbances. Rarely, more serious side effects can occur, such as a sudden decrease or loss of vision, or sudden hearing loss (SSNHL). If you experience any severe or unusual symptoms, including a sudden change in hearing, stop taking the medication immediately and seek urgent medical attention. Our doctors will discuss all potential side effects and contraindications during your online consultation.
