While there is no cure for erectile dysfunction, Staxyn is an effective treatment that works well for most men. As a PDE-5 inhibitor, Staxyn relaxes the muscles in the penis and increases blood flow, which allows you to get an erection during sexual activity.
You should take Staxyn approximately 30 minutes before sexual activity. The medication will stay in your bloodstream for approximately 6 hours. Staxyn will not give you an instant erection. Contrary to what you might have heard, you must be sexually stimulated to get an erection while taking Staxyn.
Don’t take Staxyn if you also take nitrates for cardiovascular conditions, because it could cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Never take more than one dose of Staxyn within the same 24-hour period. It’s important to take Staxyn a prescribed by your doctor. Your doctor can help you choose the best treatment for erectile dysfunction.
