Schedule an appointment with your doctor. This is the safest way to address erectile dysfunction (ED). Your doctor can properly diagnose the underlying cause of your ED, rule out other health problems, and determine the best treatment plan for you.
Your doctor might prescribe Cialis or another medication. They can explain potential side effects and interactions with other medications you are taking. They’ll also monitor your progress and adjust your treatment as needed.
- Consider other ED treatments: Besides medication, options include lifestyle changes (diet, exercise, stress reduction), therapy, vacuum erection devices, or penile implants. Your doctor can discuss the pros and cons of each. Use only FDA-approved medications: Never purchase medications from unauthorized online pharmacies. Counterfeit drugs can be dangerous and ineffective. Always check the FDA website for a list of approved medications. Talk to a pharmacist: They can answer questions about medications and offer guidance on safe medication use. They can also help you find affordable options, such as generic alternatives to Cialis.
If cost is a concern, discuss financial assistance programs with your doctor or pharmacist. Many programs help patients afford prescription medications.
Check your insurance coverage: Your health insurance may cover part or all of the cost of ED medications. Contact your insurance provider to verify coverage. Look for manufacturer coupons or rebates: Pharmaceutical companies often offer coupons or rebates to reduce the cost of their medications. Use a reputable online pharmacy: If you must order online, only use pharmacies verified by your doctor or pharmacist and licensed by your state’s board of pharmacy. Look for an official seal of approval from legitimate regulatory bodies.
Prioritizing your health means choosing safe and legal options. A consultation with your doctor provides the best path towards effective and safe ED treatment.
