What is Erectile Dysfunction?
Erectile Dysfunction (ED) has been defined as the inability to obtain and/or maintain an erection hard enough for satisfactory sexual intercourse. It can occur occasionally or frequently, and men are able to self-recognise the condition, which can vary in severity from mild (a soft erection) to severe (no erection at all).What causes Erectile Dysfunction?
It can be caused by several different factors, both physical and psychological, which in turn can cause issues with confidence, self-esteem and depression.The main physical factors are; Diabetes. Around a quarter of diabetic men aged between 30-34 are affected by occasional ED. This increases to around 75% in the 60-64 age group. Inadequate blood flow. For example, constricted blood vessels or furred up arteries. Issues that affect the heart often affect ED, e.g. smoking.
Heavy drinking. The side effects of prescribed drugs. This includes drugs that are used to treat high blood pressure or heart disease.
The main psychological factors are stress, anxiety, depression, sexual boredom and relationship conflicts.

Always read the enclosed leaflet before use.
Patients who have conditions which may predispose them to priapism (such as sickle cell anaemia, multiple myeloma or leukaemia), should consult a doctor before using agents for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, including sildenafil. Prolonged erections and priapism have been occasionally reported with sildenafil in post-marketing experience. In the event of an erection that persists longer than 4 hours, seek immediate medical assistance. If priapism is not treated immediately, penile tissue damage and permanent loss of potency could result.
As dizziness and altered vision were reported in clinical trials with sildenafil, users should be aware of how they react to this medicine, before driving or operating machinery.
The most commonly reported adverse reactions in clinical studies among sildenafil treated patients were headache, flushing, dyspepsia, nasal congestion, dizziness, nausea, hot flush, visual disturbance, cyanopsia and vision blurred.
Always read the enclosed leaflet before use.
Adult men: one 50mg tablet taken with water approximately one hour before sexual activity. The maximum recommended dosing is once per day.
