Angine de poitrine

Types de traitement

There are two main classes of medicine that can help to treat erectile dysfunction (or ED): ‘PDE5 Inhibitors’, which are pills like Viagra; and ‘Prostaglandins’, which may be injected into the base of the penis, such as Caverject.

Despite their scientific-sounding names, what they do is quite simple; and that is to help increase the flow of blood to the penis, to enable stronger and longer-lasting erections when sexually aroused.

How do they work?

Both types of drugs aim to increase blood flow to the penis, but they do so in slightly different ways:

1. PDE5 Inhibitors

PDE5 is the name given to an enzyme which determines when blood vessels narrow and dilate; and this enzyme can sometimes restrict the passage of blood into the penis. PDE5 Inhibitors limit the activity of this enzyme, enabling blood to flow more easily to the penis, thereby relieving symptoms impotence. PDE5 Inhibitors are found in the most common erection pills such as Viagra and Cialis.

2. Prostaglandins

Prostaglandins are important hormone-like compounds that do a lot of work inside the body. For instance, when you suffer an injury, prostaglandins are responsible for alerting you to it, by sending pain signals to the brain from the affected area. Medicines such as Caverject contain alprostadil, an agent which mimics these natural hormones, allowing for greater sensitivity. This agent both enables those vessels letting blood into the penis to dilate; and encourages blood vessels allowing blood to exit the penis to narrow, keeping blood in the penis and helping it to stay erect.

What are the side effects?

Side effects can vary within medicines of the same class, so it’s important to always read the patient information leaflet provided with your medicine. If you’re unsure, or think you might be experiencing a side effect, it is vital to talk to your doctor or pharmacist immediately.

Can I take them with other medications?

Both PDE5 Inhibitors and Prostaglandins can interact with a range of different medicines, so it is essential to inform your doctor of any medicines you are currently taking, or illnesses you have previously suffered from. Do not start or stop taking any medicines before checking with your doctor or pharmacist first. This includes prescription medicines, non-prescription medicines, and remedies.
