Who qualifies for Vitaros

Vitaros is a topical cream used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). An EU-licensed doctor will assess your suitability based on your medical history and current health. Generally, ideal candidates are adult men experiencing ED who have no contraindications to alprostadil, the active ingredient in Vitaros. The doctor will look for potential interactions with other medications you might be taking and any underlying health conditions that could make Vitaros unsafe or ineffective for you. Conditions like severe heart disease, low blood pressure, or a history of priapism (prolonged erection) might preclude you from receiving a prescription.

What Vitaros actually does (and doesn't do)

Vitaros contains alprostadil, a synthetic form of prostaglandin E1. When applied to the tip of the penis, it increases blood flow, leading to an erection. This mechanism is localized, meaning it primarily affects the penis and has minimal systemic effects compared to oral ED medications. Vitaros typically works within 5–30 minutes, providing an erection sufficient for sexual activity. It does not act as an aphrodisiac, nor does it affect sexual desire. It's designed to facilitate an erection only when sexually stimulated. Individual responses can vary, and it may not work for everyone.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Vitaros can cause side effects. Common side effects include localized pain, redness, or burning sensation in the penis, and mild dizziness. Less common but more serious side effects can include prolonged erection (priapism), fainting, or allergic reactions. You should stop using Vitaros and seek immediate medical attention if you experience a prolonged erection lasting more than four hours, severe penile pain, or signs of an allergic reaction like rash, itching, or swelling. Always discuss any concerning side effects with your doctor.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if the doctor decides I'm not a candidate for Vitaros?
