Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common concern for many men, impacting quality of life and sexual health.

Who qualifies for ED medication
When you complete the online medical questionnaire, an EU-licensed doctor will assess your eligibility for ED medication. The doctor looks for specific criteria to ensure the treatment is safe and effective for you. Generally, you must be an adult male experiencing consistent difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection. Contraindications and potential interactions with other medications are carefully reviewed. Conditions like uncontrolled high blood pressure, severe heart disease, recent stroke or heart attack, or certain eye conditions may make you unsuitable for ED medication. The doctor's primary goal is your safety and well-being, ensuring that if a prescription is issued, it is the right treatment for your individual health profile.
What ED medication actually does (and doesn't do)
ED medications, such as Sildenafil (Viagra) and Tadalafil (Cialis), work by increasing blood flow to the penis, making it easier to achieve and maintain an erection when sexually stimulated. These medications are phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors. They relax the blood vessels in the penis, allowing more blood to flow in during arousal. They do not cause an erection automatically; sexual stimulation is still required. Realistic timelines for results vary, but many men experience improved erections within 30-60 minutes of taking the medication. It's important to understand that these medications treat the symptoms of ED, not the underlying cause. While highly effective for many, they are not a cure for all types of ED, and your doctor will discuss expectations and limitations with you.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, ED treatments can have side effects. Common side effects include headaches, flushing, nasal congestion, indigestion, and visual disturbances (especially with Sildenafil). More serious, but rare, side effects can include a sudden decrease or loss of vision or hearing, or an erection lasting longer than four hours (priapism). If you experience any severe side effects, or an erection that won't go away, you should seek immediate medical attention. Always inform your doctor of all medications you are currently taking, as some, particularly nitrates used for chest pain, can interact dangerously with ED drugs. The doctor will provide comprehensive information on side effects and instruct you on when to stop the medication or seek further medical advice.
