Treatment and safety

What if the first ED medicine I try doesn't work?

That is common and worth reporting. Timing, food, dose adjustments by your clinician or switching medicines can help, and other options exist if pills are not enough.

Guidelines suggest reviewing how the medicine was taken before deciding it has failed.

Your clinician can talk through next steps that fit your health and preferences.

Risks and limitations

  • Do not take extra doses on your own; higher doses raise side-effect risk.
