Online ED Prescriptions - Erectile Dysfunction Treatment

Our specialized prescription service focuses exclusively on erectile dysfunction medications, providing discreet, professional consultations with licensed EU doctors for safe and effective ED treatment.
1. What causes erectile dysfunction and how can it be treated?

ED can have several causes:

  • Physical factors: Heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, liver dysfunction
  • Vascular issues: Poor blood circulation to pelvic organs
  • Psychological factors: Stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, reduced self-esteem
  • Lifestyle factors: Smoking, excessive alcohol, lack of exercise, poor diet
  • Medications: Some blood pressure, antidepressant, and other medications
  • Hormonal: Low testosterone levels
How ED happens: During sexual arousal, cyclic GMP (cGMP) is released, causing penile arteries to relax and increasing blood flow. ED occurs when this mechanism fails.

Treatment approaches include: PDE-5 inhibitor medications (most effective first-line treatment), lifestyle improvements, psychological therapy, and specialized medical interventions. Our doctors provide comprehensive assessment to determine the best approach for your specific situation.

2. What ED medications do you prescribe?
We prescribe proven PDE-5 inhibitors – medications that enhance natural erectile function by improving blood flow to the penis:
Available ED Medications:
  • Sildenafil (Viagra)
  • Tadalafil (Cialis)
  • Vardenafil (Levitra)
  • Avanafil (Spedra)
How they work: These medications block PDE-5 enzymes, allowing cGMP to relax penile blood vessels and increase blood flow. They enhance natural erections – sexual stimulation is still required.
3. Why do you need to know my blood pressure for an ED prescription?
Blood pressure is critical for ED medication safety.
Here’s why we need accurate, recent blood pressure readings (within 6 months):
  • Safety assessment: ED medications can affect blood pressure
  • Drug interactions: Dangerous with nitrates and some blood pressure medications
  • Dosage decisions: Your BP helps determine the safest starting dose
  • Risk evaluation: Cardiovascular health affects ED medication suitability
Important: When used improperly, these medications can cause serious harm. If you haven’t had your blood pressure checked within 6 months, get a free reading at most pharmacies or clinics before your consultation.
4. How much does ED treatment cost and is it covered by insurance?

€24.20 per consultation This includes:

  • Complete medical consultation and ED assessment
  • Digital prescription (if medically appropriate)
  • Medication selection guidance (brand name and generic options)
  • Dosage optimization and usage instructions

Insurance coverage: ED medications are typically not covered by European health insurance as they’re considered lifestyle medications for non-life-threatening conditions.

5. How do I get an ED prescription through your service?

4-step process:

  1. Online consultation: Complete our confidential medical questionnaire

Most prescriptions are reviewed and issued within 4-6 business hours. Once issued, you can use the prescription at any participating European pharmacy.

  • Complete medical questionnaire: Detailed ED and health assessment
  • Cardiovascular screening: Blood pressure, heart health questions
  • Medication history: Current medications and interactions check
  • Symptom evaluation: ED severity and duration assessment

Video consultation available: Our doctor can arrange a call with a patient if needed for complex medical histories, unusual cases, or when additional medical evaluation is required for safety.

  • Print prescription: Print the PDF prescription and bring to pharmacy
  • ID verification: Bring valid photo ID for patient verification
  • QR verification: Pharmacy can scan QR code on the prescription to check its validity
  • Payment: Pay at pharmacy (insurance typically doesn’t cover ED medications)

Privacy note: Your prescription is handled with complete confidentiality by pharmacy staff.

9. What are the common side effects of ED medications?
Most men experience no side effects. When they do occur, side effects are typically mild and temporary: Common side effects (usually resolve within hours):
  • Headaches: Most common, usually mild
  • Facial flushing: Temporary redness/warmth
  • Nasal congestion: Stuffy or runny nose
