Treatments of Erectile Dysfunction
Oral medications such as Viagra, Cialis and Levitra have been the long standing treatment due to the ease of use, convenience and quick results. Recently a low dose daily treatment with Cialis was approved which means not having to think of ED at all or having to stop to take the pill. While stem cell therapy and shockwave therapy are also indicated to treat erectile dysfunction, the use of oral medications is only increasing as the safety profile continues to improve with this class of medications.

The cost of treatment of erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation varies depending on if you choose brand or generic medications, the type of medication, and the treatment frequency. An average person spends about $50 a month to treat ED.
The most common medications used to treat ED are known as PDE5 inhibitors (Viagra, Cialis, Levitra all belong to this class). While generally well tolerated for the treatment of ED, common adverse drug reactions reported include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, nasopharyngitis, and dyspepsia. Rare but serious reports of prolonged erections lasting more than 4 hours and priapism (painful erections lasting more than 6 hours) have been reported as well. Priapism need medical attention because if not immediately treated can lead to permanent penile tissue damage. Visual abnormalities and sudden hearing loss has been reported in post marketing studies in patients using PDE5 inhibitors.The most common medications used to treat ED are known as PDE5 inhibitors (Viagra, Cialis, Levitra all belong to this class).

When PDE5 inhibitors first came on the scene, they were limited for certain age groups. Since then a lot of data has been collected in various age groups which has proven safety of this class of drugs in all age groups. There are very little concerns in prescribing it to men at any age and in some countries these medications are now available over the counter (UK being a very recent example).
Any man can safely treat ED if they are experiencing symptoms. An initial assessment is recommended to make sure that the proper cause of the symptoms is being targeted for the best treatment.
While your family doctor is the best place to start, most men choose to use online consultation services due to ease of use, confidentially and hassle free and competitive pricing for treatment medications.

While the safe use of prescription medications has been shown to be safe in the large majority of patients, most of the severe side effects are seen in use of medications without prescription bought from unlicensed online pharmacies and unproven treatments. With the increased use of internet, there has been an increase in genuine consultations and pharmacy services along with an even large increase in fake and unscrupulous pharmacies. Make sure you take the proper steps to ensure that your medication is safe and genuine. You can read our article here to help you pick the right service for you.
