Mr. Wang and his wife have not had a good couple recently. They have been hasty almost every time. He feels that his hardness has decreased significantly compared to before, and he can hardly maintain a satisfactory sexual process. In this regard, he began to read various information about erectile dysfunction (ED) online. A few days ago, Mr. Wang consulted in the backstage and wanted to ask if the tadalafil tablets used by many patients on the market can improve ED? Should I take the treatment every day?
Can tadalafil tablets treat ED?
The answer is yes, tadalafil tablets can be used to treat ED.
In 2010, the European Association for Urology (EAU) guidelines listed type 5 phosphodiesterase (PDE5) inhibitors as first-line drugs for the treatment of male ED, which can better help patients control and maintain hardness. PDE5 inhibitors mainly include tadalafil, sildenafil and vardenafil . Among them, Lansutadalafil tablets have received patients' preferences due to their better effects and therapeutic advantages. What are the specific advantages of
Tadalafil tablets?
1, long-acting
Compared with other drugs, the first feature of tadalafil tablets is "long-acting". It can improve hardness within 36 hours after the patient takes it as needed, and has a gentle effect, reducing the incidence of malignant adverse reactions and has better efficacy.
2. Convenient to take
Tadalafil tablets are not affected by eating. Compared with other drugs that require an empty stomach, this undoubtedly increases the convenience of the patients. In addition, tadalafil tablets can also be taken with more than 5 alcohol units of alcohol, and the patient's use scenarios are wider. (1 alcohol unit ≈100ml wine with 12% alcohol concentration)
3. Applicable population
As men age, the probability of ED or other male sexual dysfunction is greater. After the age of 40, some men will also develop urinary system diseases based on ED, such as benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). In the early stage, patients with BPH often show symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, urinary incontinence, urinary disorders and increased nocturnal urine, and in the later stage, they will also experience symptoms such as incomplete urination. Tadalafil tablets can be used in ED patients and also in patients with ED combined with BPH. They are the only approved drug among the PDE5 inhibitors recommended by the EAU [Note] guidelines for the treatment of this disease.
Tadalafil tablets have obvious advantages. Do patients need to take medication every day?
Generally speaking, most patients with ED take tadalafil tablets as needed. Patients with ED and BPH need to take them daily according to the course of treatment, but the specific medication needs to be decided according to the doctor's guidance.
The recommended dose for ED patients who take on demand is 10mg. The doses are increased or decreased according to the individual's efficacy and tolerance. The following types of ED patients need to take them daily according to the course of treatment:
1, ED patients with poor treatment on demand
2, ED patients who do not pay attention to ED treatment
3, ED patients who use combined traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment
4, ED patients over 40 years old with BPH
[Popular Science at the end of the article] What should I pay attention to when taking tadalafil tablets?
First of all, you need to pay attention when taking medicine: do not break it open and take tadalafil tablets, this product needs to be taken as a whole tablet. Moreover, since the drug lasts for up to 36 hours, patients who take it as needed need to choose their time carefully to avoid taking it multiple times within a day.
Secondly, if the patient is allergic to the drug ingredients, is taking nitrate drugs or is taking GC stimulators (such as Leoscigua), this drug cannot be used.
Finally, if the patient has suffered myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, heart failure , hypertension , hypotension , stroke and other diseases in recent months, this medicine should not be used.
