Who qualifies for ED medication
Our EU-licensed doctors review your case individually to determine if ED medication is appropriate. They look for specific health indicators and contraindications. Generally, you may qualify if you are an adult male experiencing consistent difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse. The doctor will assess your medical history, current medications, and any underlying health conditions like heart disease, blood pressure issues, or liver/kidney problems to ensure the treatment is safe for you. Certain conditions, such as recent heart attack or stroke, severe liver impairment, or use of nitrate medications, typically disqualify you for oral ED treatments like sildenafil or tadalafil.
What ED medication actually does (and doesn't do)
ED medications, such as sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis), and vardenafil, belong to a class of drugs called PDE5 inhibitors. They work by increasing blood flow to the penis when you are sexually aroused, helping you achieve and maintain an erection. They do not work without sexual stimulation. Results are not instantaneous; you typically need to take the medication 30-60 minutes before sexual activity. These medications do not prevent sexually transmitted infections, nor do they increase libido directly.
Side effects and when to stop
Common side effects of ED medications include headache, flushing, upset stomach, nasal congestion, and temporary visual changes. These are usually mild and temporary. More serious but rare side effects include a sudden decrease or loss of vision or hearing, or an erection lasting longer than four hours (priapism). You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience these. Always follow your doctor's instructions. Stop taking the medication and consult a doctor if you experience severe side effects or if your condition worsens.
