Definition:
Erectile Dysfunction is the:
“…consistent inability to obtain or
maintain an erection satisfactory for
sexual function.”

Neurophysiology:
Nitric Oxide
• nitric oxide is the most
important NT mediating
erection (parasympathetic)
• following arousal, cavernous
nerves release NO into
synapses on smooth muscle
• NO leads to increase in
intracellular cGMP

• PDE-5 inhibitors have had enormous impact in treatment of ED
• currently considered 1st line treatment for ED
• overall effectiveness reported 60-70% *
• many men are reluctant to discuss ED issues:
embarrassment
feelings of inadequacy
perception that ED is not a medical problem
lack of knowledge that effective therapy exists
fear of invasive testing
• if initial trial of PDE-5 inhibitor is ineffective, subsequent trial
of alternate PDE-5 inhibitor less likely to succeed
• consider Urology consultation if initial PDE-5 inhibitor fails

Summary:
1. Numerous therapeutic options are available for patients
suffering from erectile dysfunction.
2. While oral PDE-5 inhibitors serve as first line therapy for
most patients with ED, approximately 1/3 of patients can
be expected to fail.
3. Consider Urology referral if initial trial of PDE-5 inhibitor
is not successful, contraindicated, or if problematic
Peyronie’s Disease is present.
