What Is Online Erectile Dysfunction Evaluation?

Erectile dysfunction describes difficulty obtaining or maintaining an erection. A clinician considers physical, medication-related, and psychological factors. Laboratory testing or an in-person examination may be required.

Who May Be a Candidate

A clinician reviews symptoms, cardiovascular history, blood pressure, kidney and liver conditions, and all medications before prescribing. An intake does not guarantee a prescription. In-person assessment or referral may be required. Do not take PDE5 inhibitors with nitrates or riociguat. Combining PDE5 inhibitors can cause dangerous blood-pressure drops; do not combine medications on your own. Alpha blockers and other blood-pressure medicines require interaction review. Tell the clinician about cardiovascular disease and whether you have been advised to avoid sexual activity.
