Overview

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a warning symptom of a potential latent serious disease (e.g.cardiovascular diseases, DM). A physician, notwithstanding his specialization, should be ableto speak openly with his patients about their sexual health, and in need to carry out a basicexamination and afford adequate therapy. Presently, in the treatment of EDthere predominatesoral pharmacotherapy with single applications preceding each coitus. Available are now threeproducts - sildenafil, apomorphine, and tadalafil, differing in their characteristics and facilitatingtargeted and individually adjusted treatment. None of these three drugs influence thepatient’s appetency or orgastic experience. Simply, in question there are specific penilevasodilatators. The newest of them, tadalafil, is of significantly longer action in comparison withthe other two.

Key words:
erectile dysfunction - pharmacotherapy - oral treatment - tadalafil.
