Vitaros (Alprostadil) Cream is used to treat erectile dysfunction. It works by relaxing blood vessels and increasing blood flow to the penis.
Vitaros (Alprostadil) Cream is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction in men aged 18 or over. After application of this cream, the onset of an erection is within 5 to 30 minutes.
Erectile dysfunction can happen due to many reasons, including smoking, alcohol, poor blood circulation in the penis, nerve damage and emotional issues. This treatment relaxes the blood vessels in the penis, increasing blood flow leading to an erection.
Always use Vitaros (Alprostadil) Cream exactly as your doctor has told you to. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.
This cream should be used as needed to get an erection. Each Vitaros container is single use and should be properly discarded after use.
The starting dose for getting an erection should be recommended by a physician. Do not adjust your dose yourself. Speak to your doctor for guidance on the proper administration technique. Make sure that you do not apply this treatment more than 2 to 3 times a week and only once per 24-hour period.
This treatment’s duration of effect is about 1 to 2 hours, but this can vary from patient to patient. It is recommended to urinate before application.
Like all medicines, this erectile dysfunction treatment can cause side effects although not everyone will experience them.
Common side effects include:
Your partner may also experience side effects, such as burning or itching, which may be because of the treatment or the act of vaginal penetration. A water-based lubricant can help to ease this.
If you get a long-lasting erection of over 4 hours, contact your doctor straight away. Your doctor may reduce your dose and discontinue treatment.
You can find more information on side effects as well as a full list of potential side effects by seeing the patient information leaflet.
Vitaros contains alprostadil, which works by relaxing the blood vessels in the penis, increasing blood flow to the area. Applied directly to the tip of the penis, the cream is absorbed through the urethra and surrounding tissues. Alprostadil activates specific receptors that trigger the release of nitric oxide, which relaxes smooth muscle tissue and dilates blood vessels.
This increased blood flow enables the penis to become rigid and maintain an erection. Vitaros typically begins working within 5-30 minutes and its effects last for 1-2 hours.
