Who qualifies for Erectile Dysfunction medication
Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually to ensure your safety and treatment effectiveness. They look for specific criteria, including your overall health, existing medical conditions, and any medications you are currently taking. Generally, suitable candidates are adult men experiencing persistent difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection. Contraindications include certain heart conditions, uncontrolled high blood pressure, and specific medication interactions, especially with nitrates. During your online consultation, you'll provide a detailed medical history to help the doctor make an informed decision.
What Erectile Dysfunction medication actually does (and doesn't do)
Erectile Dysfunction medications, primarily PDE5 inhibitors like Sildenafil (Viagra), Tadalafil (Cialis), Vardenafil (Levitra), and Avanafil (Spedra), work by increasing blood flow to the penis, making it easier to achieve and maintain an erection when sexually stimulated. Another option, Alprostadil cream (Vitaros), is a topical treatment that also promotes blood flow. These medications do not cause an instant erection without sexual arousal; they enhance your natural response. They are not a cure for ED but a treatment for its symptoms, allowing for spontaneous sexual activity. Realistic timelines involve taking the medication shortly before sexual activity, with effects lasting from a few hours up to 36 hours, depending on the specific drug.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, Erectile Dysfunction treatments can have side effects. Common ones for PDE5 inhibitors include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and mild visual disturbances. Alprostadil cream may cause localised irritation. More serious, though rare, side effects can include a sudden loss of vision or hearing, or priapism (a prolonged erection lasting more than four hours). If you experience any severe or concerning side effects, stop taking the medication immediately and seek urgent medical attention. Your Hi-Doctor will discuss potential side effects and contraindications during your consultation, ensuring you understand when to discontinue use and seek help.
