Erectile dysfunction: A major cause of depression in men

Erectile dysfunction or ED, can be classified as total inability to achieve erection, an inconsistent ability to do so, or a tendency to get and keep only brief erections. An estimated more than15 million to 30 million men around the globe are effected by Erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction usually has a physical cause, such as disease, injury, or side effects of drugs. Any disorder that causes injury to the nerves or impairs blood flow in the penis, stress, anxiety, guilt, depression, low self-esteem, and fear of sexual failure can cause ED. No doubt that the incidence of ED increases with age but it can occur at any age from 15 to 70 years and is not an inevitable part of aging process. The treatement of erectile dysfunction is through following pills.
VIAGRA
Viagra (sildenafil citrate) is used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men and is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It works by blocking an enzyme found mainly in the penis that breaks down a chemical created during stimulation that increases blood flow in the penis, which then produces erections. Viagra allows this chemical of arousal to survive longer and greatly improve erectile function.
Take viagra exactly as prescribed by your doctor or pharmacist. Do not take it in larger doses or for longer than recommended. Viagra is available in 3 doses: 25 mg, 50 mg, and 100 mg. It is usually taken only when needed, 30 minutes to 45 minutes before sexual activity. You may take it up to 4 hours before sexual activity. Remember do not take viagra more than once per day. Viagra can help you have an erection only when sexual stimulation occurs.
It is strictly recommended not to take sildenafil if you are also using a nitrate drug for any sort of heart problems as it can cause a severe and dramatic drop in blood pressure with really very dangerous consequences. A small number of patients have also observed a sudden loss of eyesight after using viagra. This type of vision loss is caused by decreased blood flow to the optic nerve of the eye but It has not been cleared whether sildenafil is the actual cause of such vision loss or not. It is important to remember that do not take sildenafil more than once a day. Contact your doctor or seek emergency medical attention if your erection is painful or lasts longer than 4 hours. A prolonged erection can lead to severe damage to the penis.
CIALIS
Cialis is an oral drug that has been proven to improve erections in men who have difficulty achieving or maintaining erections during sexual intercourse due to erectile dysfunction. Cialis is the first joint product of Lilly, an Indiana based pharmaceutical company and ICOS and was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States in November 2003.
Take Cialis exactly as prescribed by your doctor or pharmacist. Do not take it in larger doses or for longer than recommended by your doctor. Cialis can be taken with or without food and is usually taken only when needed, just before sexual activity. Remember that cialis cannot increase male sexual desire, cannot protect him from sexually transmitted diseases, and cannot serve as a birth control pill.
It is strictly recommended that individuals suffering from heart diseases, diabetes, strokes, hypertension and allergy should consult their doctor before starting this medication. Do not take Cialis if you are also using a nitrate drug as it can cause a serious decrease in blood pressure, leading to fainting, stroke, or heart attack. Remember do not take Cialis more than once a day. Contact your doctor or seek emergency medical attention if your erection is painful or lasts longer than 4 hours as prolonged erection may cause some serious side effects.
LEVITRA
Levitra is an FDA approved drug which is manufactured by Bayer Corporation in Germany and is distributed by Glaxo Smith Kline. Levitra (also called vardenafil HCL) is a prescription pill used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men. It works by allowing the muscles in the penis to relax which increases blood flow to particular areas of the body thus creating a firm erection.
Take Levitra exactly as prescribed by your doctor for you. Do not take it in larger doses or for longer than recommended by your doctor. Levitra is available in 2.5mg, 5mg, 10mg and 20mg pills. Levitra is usually taken only when needed, up to 60 minutes before sexual activity. Levitra is not an Aphrodisiac so an erection will not occur just by taking a pill. Levitra can help achieve an erection only when sexual stimulation occurs. Remember seek emergency medical attention if your erection is painful or lasts longer than 4 hours. A prolonged erection (priapism) can damage the penis.
Levitra should not be taken by men taking nitrate drugs, often used to control chest pain (also known as angina), Such combinations could cause blood pressure to drop to an unsafe level. Levitra does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases. In rare instances, men taking PDE5 inhibitors (oral erectile dysfunction medicine, including Levitra) reported a sudden decrease or loss of vision, or a sudden loss or decrease in hearing, sometimes with ringing in the ears and dizziness. It is not possible to determine whether these events are related directly to these medicines or to other factors. If you experience any of these symptoms, stop taking PDE5 inhibitors, including LEVITRA, and call your doctor right away.
Clinical studies conclude that Levitra provided first-time success and reliable improvement of erection quality for many men, including those with high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or diabetes.
