Who qualifies for Vitaros

Vitaros (alprostadil) cream treats erectile dysfunction (ED). When our EU-licensed doctors review your case, they look for specific criteria to ensure Vitaros is safe and effective for you. You typically qualify if you:

  • Experience difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection.
  • Have tried oral ED medications without success or experienced significant side effects.
  • Prefer a non-oral, topical treatment for ED.
  • Do not have medical conditions that contraindicate alprostadil, such as a predisposition to priapism (prolonged erection) or certain heart conditions.
  • Are not taking other medications that could negatively interact with Vitaros.

The doctor will carefully evaluate your full medical history, current medications, and overall health to determine if Vitaros is the right choice for your specific situation.

What Vitaros actually does (and doesn't do)

Vitaros cream contains alprostadil, a synthetic form of prostaglandin E1. When applied to the penis, alprostadil works by increasing blood flow to the erectile tissues, which helps you achieve and maintain an erection. It's a localised treatment, meaning it acts directly where it's applied, leading to a faster onset of action — typically within 5 to 30 minutes.

What Vitaros does: It helps facilitate an erection sufficient for sexual activity. For many, it offers a discreet and effective alternative to oral ED medications or injections, providing an erection that usually lasts for about 1-2 hours.

What Vitaros doesn't do: Vitaros does not cure erectile dysfunction; it manages the symptoms. It requires sexual stimulation to be effective, meaning it won't cause a spontaneous erection without arousal. It also does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or act as a form of contraception.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Vitaros can cause side effects. Most are mild and temporary. Common side effects include localised redness, burning, or discomfort at the application site. Some men may experience mild pain or throbbing in the penis, or even dizziness. These generally subside quickly.

When to stop and seek medical attention:

  • If you experience an erection lasting longer than 4 hours (priapism). This is a medical emergency and requires immediate attention to prevent permanent damage.
  • If you develop severe pain, swelling, or unusual discolouration of the penis.
  • If you have an allergic reaction, such as rash, itching, severe dizziness, or difficulty breathing.
  • If side effects are persistent, bothersome, or worsen over time.

Always discuss any concerns or adverse reactions with your doctor. Our EU-licensed doctors are available through your private, RGPD-compliant chat in your Hi-Doctor account for any follow-up questions.
