Abstract

Patients with erectile dysfunction require special approach. Any therapy should be prescribed with patient’s individual features, comorbidities and concominant medication in mind. Considering good efficacy and safety profile of tadalafil, together with appearance of its generic forms on the market, making such treatment more accessible for our patients, soon it may become the most commonly prescribed drug from phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors class. Therefore, evidence on its use in special groups of men with specific anamnestic features should be systematized. In this article we discuss the use of 20 mg tadalafil on demand in specific categories of patients suffering from erectile dysfunction: in men with metabolic syndrome, benign prostate diseases, neurological conditions and, finally, in men who express wish to become fathers.
