ED happens when a man cannot get or keep an erection long enough to complete a desired sexual act, such as intercourse. This can include several different situations:
The definition of ED doesn’t include low sex drive (which describes a state where you don’t think about sex or have any desire for sex) or premature ejaculation. These are separate issues.
Erectile dysfunction is a common problem that many men experience at some point in their lives. In fact, it affects up to 40% of men by age 40. The good news is that it’s also a very treatable condition.
With the proper care and ED treatment, the vast majority of men can manage the condition successfully. You deserve to put ED in the past enjoy your sex life. If you’re interested in meds to help treat the condition, Lemonaid makes it safe and easy to get a prescription for ED pills online.
Conditions that can contribute to ED include
Erectile dysfunction isn’t a natural part of aging, but the risk of ED does increase as men age. That’s because many of the underlying causes of erectile dysfunction become more common as you age.
Because there are so many potential culprits, one crucial aspect of diagnosing and treating ED is figuring out the underlying cause.
Now that you know about the possible causes of ED let’s look at the options that can help. Several very effective treatments for ED are available by prescription, including oral ED medications, testosterone therapy, penile injections, and intraurethral medication. For now, we’ll check out the oral options available by prescription only.
The oral prescription meds used to treat ED are called PDE-5 inhibitors. ED pills are sold under brand names like Viagra™, Cialis™, Levitra™, and Stendra™, plus their generic equivalents.
For many men, oral medications are the standard, first-line treatment for ED. These meds are routinely prescribed and have proven effective for many men. Plus, their safety has been widely studied. If you’re interested in oral ED medication, these are your 4 options.
Each of the generics contains the same active ingredients in the same concentrations as the higher-cost, branded medications.
These ED medications all work the same way to increase blood flow to the penis by relaxing muscles in and around the penis.
When a man is sexually stimulated, a gas called nitric oxide (NO) is released, which helps relax the muscles in the penis. As the muscles relax, the penis can fill with blood, becoming erect. Oral ED meds help boost the effects of nitric oxide, assisting men who have trouble getting or staying erect.

Before you move forward with Rx meds for ED, it’s essential to understand what these pills can and can’t do.
Prescription ED pills can
Just as important, here’s what prescription ED medication cannot do
One of the most crucial things to understand is that oral erectile dysfunction drugs are not an aphrodisiac. This means that taking ED meds won’t increase your desire to have sex or affect your libido.
Also, not all men with erectile dysfunction will benefit from a prescription drug for ED. For instance, men with particular histories—including conditions like diabetes or past prostate surgery—may not respond to oral erectile dysfunction meds.
As with all prescription pills for ED, there is a risk of unwanted reactions. The single most common side effect of PDE-5 inhibitors is headache. PDE-5 inhibitors also have the potential to cause a serious condition called priapism, where your erection will not go away.
If you have an erection that lasts longer than 4 hours, it’s critical that you seek medical advice and attention ASAP.
All of these medications can also cause acute reactions, such as changes in hearing and vision, including sudden loss of eyesight in one or both eyes, and sudden decrease in or loss of hearing.
If you’ve been prescribed an oral ED medication and you’re having a poor reaction to it, it’s crucial to let your prescribing doctor or nurse practitioner know.
The most common side effects of sildenafil (generic Viagra) and the brand name medication are
It’s also possible you’ll experience a more severe reaction when you take branded or generic Viagra. This includes chest pain, sweating, shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, and seizures.
The most common tadalafil side effects are
Other possibilities when using tadalafil include chest pain, sweating, changes in hearing, and abnormal vision.
The most common side effects associated with Levitra are
More serious possibilities include memory impairment, seizures, and fast or irregular heartbeat. If you experience any of these reactions, please get medical advice right away.
The most commonly reported Stendra side effects are
Using this drug may cause serious reactions. These include chest pain and tightness, shortness of breath, extreme lightheadedness, and swelling in the hands and feet. If you are experiencing any of these or develop a painful erection that lasts more than 4 hours, please get medical attention right away.
Many men want to know how to get prescription ED pills without a doctor or other medical professional. While this may seem like the most comfortable option upfront, we always encourage you to prioritize your safety and wellbeing over convenience.
Viagra is the most widely counterfeited drug on the market. That’s why you should only use oral ED medicines prescribed by a doctor or other licensed healthcare professional, and get the meds from a licensed and US-based pharmacy.
Your health and wellbeing come first. You deserve to put ED behind you and to enjoy your sex life. But you also deserve to do that safely.
Lemonaid can prescribe sildenafil (generic Viagra), tadalafil (generic Cialis), and vardenafil (generic Levitra). You can get a prescription online following a quick and easy visit with a member of our clinical team. Then the Lemonaid pharmacy, licensed in all 50 states, will ship your meds directly to your door in discreet packaging.
Online telehealth services like Lemonaid offer you both safety and convenience. Using our ED service, you can get erectile dysfunction pills online safely and have them delivered to your door in just a couple of days.
While our ED service does require a consultation with a doctor or nurse practitioner, it’s probably more straightforward and definitively safer than trying to buy ED pills online.
If you buy pills online from websites that don’t require prescriptions, you can’t be sure what you’re getting. These sites may send you dangerous counterfeits instead of the meds you need. It’s much safer to get meds through a licensed US pharmacy like Lemonaid’s.
Sildenafil citrate was originally developed to treat high blood pressure. In fact, under the brand name Revatio, it’s still prescribed to treat elevated blood pressure in the lungs in people with pulmonary hypertension.
The same increase in nitric oxide that helps penile muscles relax also opens up blood vessels, leading to a drop in blood pressure.
That’s why men with medical conditions like active and symptomatic heart disease, heart failure, and low blood pressure (hypotension) should avoid prescription ED pills.
The following groups of men can’t safely take oral PDE-5 inhibitors.
ED can be the first sign of other health conditions, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes. For more information, work with a member of our medical team who can order lab tests to look for any critical underlying problems.
Finding the best treatment for erectile dysfunction means prioritizing your safety. If you’re taking any medicines for hypertension, such as alpha blockers (terazosin, doxazosin, prazosin), please mention this to your medical professional before starting any prescription ED treatments.
We’re always happy to talk more about your individual concerns, your current medications, and the safest treatment route for you.
If you have hypotension, heart failure, or are using medicines for those conditions, Lemonaid won’t be able to help you. Using the ED medicines we prescribe puts you at greater risk of severe reactions such as extreme dizziness, fainting, heart attack, and stroke.
To get a prescription from Lemonaid, you’ll need a recent BP reading. We need this info to ensure that it’s safe and appropriate for you to take the meds we prescribe. It’s easy to get a BP reading for free. Just visit a participating pharmacy.
