Although Viagra is usually the drug of choice for most men who suffer
from erectile dysfunction, there are many pharmaceutical companies out
there that are trying to give Pfizer a run for its money.
Recently developed drugs, Cialis and Levitra, are the two contenders
looking to cut into the Viagra market thus far. Read on to find out
what these drugs are all about and if they are, indeed, improved
versions of erectile dysfunction (ED) medication.
Now before you start clicking all over the Net to feed your need for
an erection breed, I strongly recommend that you consult your
physician first.
Cialis
What is it?
Cialis, whose clinical name is Tadalfil , is an oral inhibitor for the
treatment of ED. Eli Lilly and Icos Corporation launched it in
pharmacies across Europe, New Zealand, and Australia, in February
2003.
Over 4,000 men have participated in more than 60 clinical studies that
characterized the safety and efficacy profile of Cialis. In these
studies, up to 88% of men experienced improvement with their
erections.
The good
Cialis works in as little as 30 minutes, and lasts between 24 and 36
hours. Unlike Viagra, that only lasts about four hours.
As well, like Viagra, Cialis works with your body; if you're excited,
you will get an erection. If you're not in the mood, your penis won't
be either.
The recommended dosage is 10 to 20 milligrams per usage. The labels
indicate that the product should be taken prior to anticipated sexual
activity and without regard to food (you can take it on an empty
stomach). And for those of you who still aren't sure, yes, sexual
stimulation is required for Cialis to work.
The bad
The most commonly reported side effects are mild to moderate, and may
include:
* Headache
* Upset stomach
* Nasal congestion
* Backache
* Muscle ache
* Dizziness
* Rhinitis
* Flushing
Its use is contraindicated in patients who are taking nitrates, or
patients with certain heart diseases, for whom sexual activity
itself is already not advisable.
When will it be available?
Although Lilly ICOS received an approval letter for Cialis from
the FDA in April 2002, it has not yet been approved for sale in
the United States; however, rumor has it that it may be approved
before the end of 2003.
Now, find out if Levitra may be what the doctor prescribes... Next
