Who qualifies for Vitaros

When you seek a Vitaros prescription online, the doctor evaluates your medical history to ensure it's a safe and effective treatment for you. Vitaros (alprostadil) is typically prescribed for men experiencing erectile dysfunction (ED). The doctor will look for:

• A clear diagnosis of erectile dysfunction.
• No contraindications such as a history of priapism, severe cardiovascular disease, or conditions predisposing to priapism (e.g., sickle cell anemia, multiple myeloma, leukemia).
• No known allergies to alprostadil or any other ingredients in Vitaros.
• Your current medication list to check for potential interactions.

The online questionnaire is designed to gather all necessary information for a thorough medical review, ensuring Vitaros is the right treatment for your specific situation.

What Vitaros actually does (and doesn't do)

Vitaros is a topical cream containing alprostadil, a synthetic form of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1). It works directly on the penis to increase blood flow, which helps achieve and maintain an erection suitable for sexual activity. Unlike oral ED medications, Vitaros is applied directly to the tip of the penis, allowing the medication to be absorbed locally.

• What it does: Vitaros typically produces an erection within 5 to 30 minutes after application, lasting for approximately 1 to 2 hours. It's designed to provide a temporary, localized effect to facilitate intercourse.
• What it doesn't do: Vitaros does not cure erectile dysfunction; it treats the symptoms. It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and is not a form of contraception. It also requires sexual stimulation for the full effect to be realized.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Vitaros can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include localized redness, burning, or aching in the penis, and mild pain during urination. These are usually temporary and mild.

When to stop and seek medical attention:

• If you experience a prolonged erection (priapism) lasting more than 4 hours, seek immediate medical help. This is a rare but serious side effect.
• Severe pain, swelling, or unusual curvature of the penis.
• Symptoms of an allergic reaction, such as rash, itching, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.

Always read the patient information leaflet provided with your medication and follow your doctor's instructions. If you have concerns about any side effects, you can message your Hi-Doctor physician securely within your account.
