What are the Treatments and Drugs to Treat Impotence?

Posted on January 30th, 2008 by olga

In numerous cases of impotence, it is a matter of changing blood pressure medication to fix the problem. If other treatments are needed, the majority medical doctors will seek treatment ranging from the least invasive to the most invasive. Psychoanalysis and behavior modifications may in addition be considered as a treatment, or, if the case warrants, prescription drugs may be recommended.
The Food and Drug Administration in recent times approved several drugs that can assist in most cases of erectile dysfunction. Viagra was approved in 1998, and in 2003, Levitra was allowed on the market, followed by a third medication for erectile dysfunction, Cialis. These drugs work by enhancing the effects of nitric oxide, a chemical that relaxes smooth muscles in the penis during sexual stimulation and allows enlarged blood flow.
