Tadalafil for erectile dysfunction: outstanding efficacy for 36 hours
Abstract
Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors are first-line oral medication for erectile dysfunction (ED). Compared with the other two PDE inhibitors (sildenafil and vardenafil), tadalafil is characterized by rapid onset, convenient dosing, excellent efficacy, especially the 36-hour duration of effectiveness deriving from long elimination half-life, allowing for more flexibility to scheduled medication. Higher satisfaction of patients and their partners with tadalafil is mainly due to such psychosocial benefits as decreased time concerns. Tadalafil is well-tolerated, consistent with the principle of safely, effectiveness and convenient dosing and is becoming the favorite choice of ED patients and their partners.
