The FDA recently approved Stendra, a new oral medication used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. Stendra is a particularly fast-acting medication. During clinical trials, some participants reported that the drug started working in less than 15 minutes.
Stendra is a PDE5 inhibitor, just like the other drugs used to treat erectile dysfunction. It works by relaxing the muscles in the penis and increasing blood flow. Overall, the new drug is well tolerated, with the most common side effects being headache, flushed skin, and nasal congestion.
When it comes to treatments for erectile dysfunction, it’s always useful to have more treatment options. Stendra might be an effective treatment for men who have not responded to other ED medications, like Viagra and Cialis. If you’re interested in trying Stendra, visit your doctor for a complete medical evaluation. Your doctor can help you determine which ED treatment is right for you.
