How effective are oral medications in treating erectile dysfunction? 

Oral medications like sildenafil and tadalafil are often very effective in treating erectile dysfunction. They enhance the effects of nitric oxide, a natural chemical your body produces that relaxes muscles in the penis, thus increasing blood flow and facilitating an erection in response to sexual stimulation. However, oral medications don’t always work for every situation, so we offer other treatment options in addition to or as opposed to oral medication. It’s all about what works for you.
