Oral drugs: Cialis, Viagra, Levitra

Drug therapy has become the most popular ED treatment option over the years. Patients regard oral medication as easy to use, safer than other therapies, with predictable and long-lasting erections. Men appreciate drug therapy in particular because it also allows more spontaneity and a natural feeling than penile injections, urethral suppositories or vacuum erection devices.

Most commonly prescribed impotence drugs are: alprostadil (an active medication used in the urethral suppositories also called MUSE), papaverine (used for penile injection therapy), testosterone supplements (administrated orally, by patch or by injection), Yohimbine tablets, phentolamine (used for penile injection therapy), oral apomorphine (sublingual medication affecting brain signals to the penis) and more popular drugs, like Viagra, Cialis and Levitra.

Oral apomorphine is absorbed under the tongue and works on the signals brain is transmitting to the penis. This is what distinguishes oral apomorphine from Viagra, Levitra or Cialis wich work on the blood flow in order to create erections. Apomorphine is an excellent alternative for men with severe cardiovascular disorders. Most reported side-effects of oral apomorphine are hedaches, nausea, and dizziness.
