Find the ED Treatment That Fits Your Routine

VidaMed offers clinician-guided access to established ED medications through a licensed provider and pharmacy network. Your clinician determines which medication, formulation, strength, and dosing schedule may be appropriate based on your health history and treatment goals.

Your preference does not guarantee that medication will be prescribed. The clinician makes the final treatment decision based on your medical history and eligibility.

Best suited for as-needed treatment

Sildenafil

Sildenafil is a PDE5 inhibitor commonly prescribed for erectile dysfunction. It is generally taken before anticipated sexual activity and has a shorter treatment window than tadalafil.

  • Taken as needed
  • Shorter duration than tadalafil
  • Prescription only
  • Requires sexual stimulation to work
  • Clinician determines appropriate strength and frequency

Available formats:

  • • Tablet / pill
  • • Dissolvable strip

Sildenafil is the active ingredient used in Viagra®.

Longer-lasting flexibility

Tadalafil On-Demand

Tadalafil is another PDE5 inhibitor used for erectile dysfunction. Compared with sildenafil, tadalafil remains active in the body for a longer period and may provide a wider window for sexual activity.

  • Taken as needed
  • Longer treatment window than sildenafil
  • Effects may remain possible for up to 36 hours
  • Prescription only
  • Sexual stimulation is still required
  • Clinician determines appropriate dose and timing

Available formats:

  • • Tablet / pill
  • • Dissolvable strip

Tadalafil is the active ingredient used in Cialis®.

Designed for everyday flexibility

Tadalafil Daily

Low-dose tadalafil may also be prescribed for daily use rather than only before sexual activity.

  • Taken once daily when prescribed this way
  • Designed to reduce the need to plan medication around individual encounters
  • Prescription only
  • Clinician determines whether daily or as-needed tadalafil is appropriate
  • Sexual stimulation is still required for an erection

Available formats:

  • • Tablet / pill

Tadalafil is the active ingredient used in Cialis®.

There is no universally “best” ED medication. Your clinician will consider your medical history, other medications, cardiovascular health, treatment preferences, and how often you anticipate sexual activity before recommending an option.

Safety information

Your Medical History Matters

Sildenafil and tadalafil can interact with certain medications and may not be appropriate for everyone. Tell your clinician about all medications, supplements, and medical conditions before treatment.

PDE5 inhibitors such as sildenafil and tadalafil should not be used with nitrate medications because the combination can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.

Tell your clinician if you have a history of:

  • heart disease
  • heart attack or stroke
  • very low blood pressure
  • certain eye conditions
  • kidney disease
  • liver disease
  • blood disorders
  • penile conditions
  • other significant cardiovascular conditions

Seek emergency medical attention for:

  • chest pain during sexual activity
  • an erection lasting more than 4 hours
  • sudden vision loss
  • sudden hearing loss
