Who qualifies for ED medication
Our EU-licensed doctors individually assess each case to ensure ED medication is safe and appropriate for you. They look for specific criteria, including your medical history, current health status, and any existing conditions or medications that could interact with ED treatments. Common ED medications like sildenafil (Viagra) and tadalafil (Cialis) are generally suitable for adult men experiencing erectile dysfunction who do not have severe cardiovascular issues, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or are taking nitrate medications. Your online questionnaire helps the doctor determine if these treatments are right for you, ensuring your safety and treatment effectiveness. If the doctor determines the treatment is not appropriate, your €25 fee is refunded.
What ED medication actually does (and doesn't do)
ED medications, such as sildenafil and tadalafil, are known as PDE5 inhibitors. They work by relaxing the muscles in your penis and increasing blood flow, which helps you achieve and maintain an erection when you are sexually aroused. These medications do not cause an erection automatically; sexual stimulation is still required. Sildenafil typically works within 30-60 minutes and lasts for about 4-6 hours, while tadalafil has a longer effect, lasting up to 36 hours. They are effective for most men with ED, but they are not a cure for underlying causes of erectile dysfunction. Their purpose is to enable an erection when needed, not to permanently resolve the condition.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, ED treatments can have side effects. Common side effects often include headaches, flushing, nasal congestion, indigestion, and temporary visual disturbances (especially with sildenafil). Less common but more serious side effects can include sudden vision loss, hearing loss, or an erection lasting longer than four hours (priapism). If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, you should stop taking the medication and seek immediate medical attention. Your Hi-Doctor will provide full details on potential side effects and contraindications during your consultation, ensuring you understand when to discontinue use or seek further advice.
