Erectile Dysfunction treatments explained

An overview of the various medications that can be prescribed to treat Impotence and
an overview of the potential side effects of using these ED treatments such as
Viagra and Cialis.

London, 12/12/2005 - ED Treatments

Cialis, Levitra and Viagra are phosphodieterase type-5 inhibitors. They are licensed
for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Since these drugs are given by mouth,
there is a potential for drug interactions.
Uprima is an apopmorphine and is given as a sublingual (under tongue) tablets.
Compared to injections, absorption from the sublingual site is limited.
Absorption rate describes how long it takes for the drug to be completely absorbed
in the body. This is an important time, as the drug will not be effective until
their time has passed. Cialis, appears to have the longest duration of action of 36
hours. But this does not mean its effect is better than the other drugs.
The reported side effects seem to be common amongst the drugs:
Cialis:
- its side effects of dyspepsia is heart burn, and myalgia is muscle pain.
Levitra:
- a "cold effect" of the nose could be felt, heart burn and flushing of the face
which might be embarrassing.
Uprima:
- symptoms, are of headache, the urge to be "sick" and dizziness
Viagra:
- This has more side effects than the others, but shares common side effects with
Cialis and Levitra. Blurish vision and urinary tract infection (water infection)
could be serious side effect and need to be monitored.
Most of these drugs need to be used with caution in cardiovascular disease, and if
the patients has an anatomical deformation of the penis. Furthermore, in those with
a predisposition to a prolonged erection (e.g. sickle-cell disease, leukaemia etc.)
it is advised to speak to your doctor.
