Erectile Dysfunction occurs when a man cannot get or keep an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse. It can happen occasionally or frequently, and its severity can vary.
ED can be caused by a range of physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors, including:
Physical causes: Heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, and certain medications.
Emotional causes: Stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues.
Lifestyle factors: Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, lack of physical activity, and poor diet.
Understanding the underlying cause of ED is crucial in determining the most effective treatment. That's why Bayview Pharmacy works closely with your healthcare provider to ensure that your treatment plan addresses your specific needs.
At Bayview Pharmacy, we understand that every individual is unique, and so is their experience with Erectile Dysfunction. That's why we offer a variety of treatment options, all of which can be tailored to suit your personal health needs and lifestyle.
Oral medications are a common and effective treatment option for Erectile Dysfunction (ED). At Bayview Pharmacy, we offer a range of oral medications tailored to meet your specific needs.
Our options include commercially available tablets, rapid dissolve tablets, and troches. Each type of medication works by increasing blood flow to the penis, helping you achieve and maintain an erection suitable for sexual activity.
We offer two of the most widely recognized oral medications for ED in their commercially available tablet form:
Sildenafil is one of the most commonly prescribed medications for ED. It works by inhibiting an enzyme called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), which can restrict blood flow to the penis. By blocking this enzyme, Sildenafil helps the blood vessels in the penis relax, allowing more blood to flow in when you’re sexually aroused.
Typically, Sildenafil is taken 30 minutes to an hour before sexual activity, and its effects can last for up to 4 hours. It’s important to note that Sildenafil will only work if you are sexually stimulated—it doesn’t cause an erection on its own.
Tadalafil is often referred to as the “weekend pill” because of its longer duration of action, which can last up to 36 hours. Like Sildenafil, Tadalafil works by inhibiting PDE5 and increasing blood flow to the penis. However, its extended half-life means that you don’t need to time your medication as precisely before sexual activity, allowing for more spontaneity
Tadalafil can be taken as needed, or in some cases, as a lower daily dose for those who prefer to be ready for sexual activity at any time without planning ahead.
Both of these medications are available in standard tablet form, making them a convenient and effective choice for many men dealing with ED.
Oral Dissolve Tablets (ODTs) offer a faster-acting alternative to traditional oral medications. These tablets are designed to dissolve quickly on your tongue, allowing the active ingredients to be absorbed into your bloodstream more rapidly. This can result in a quicker onset of action, making it easier to respond to spontaneous sexual activity.
Sildenafil in oral dissolve form offers the same benefits as the standard tablet but with a faster onset. This can be particularly beneficial if you don’t want to wait the typical 30 minutes to an hour that’s required for the traditional tablet to take effect. The rapid dissolve format allows the medication to start working in as little as 15-20 minutes, giving you more flexibility and confidence when the moment arises.
Tadalafil in rapid dissolve form combines the long-lasting effects of Tadalafil with the convenience of quick absorption. This formulation is perfect for those who want the flexibility of Tadalafil’s extended duration but prefer not to wait for the effects to kick in.
With Tadalafil RDT, you can experience the benefits of up to 36 hours of effectiveness with a faster onset, making it easier to enjoy spontaneous intimacy.
Vardenafil is another effective PDE5 inhibitor that works similarly to Sildenafil and Tadalafil but is often preferred by men who find that the other two medications don’t work as well for them. In rapid dissolve form, Vardenafil can be absorbed quickly, usually taking effect within 15-30 minutes. This faster onset can help you be more spontaneous in your sexual activities without the need for extensive planning.
Oral Dissolve Tablets are discreet, easy to take, and offer the advantage of faster absorption, making them a great choice for men who value quick action and convenience.
Troches offer a unique and versatile option for treating Erectile Dysfunction. These small, lozenge-like medications are designed to dissolve slowly in your mouth, typically between your cheek and gum, allowing the active ingredients to be absorbed directly through the mucous membranes.
This method of delivery provides a more gradual and sustained release of the medication, which can be particularly useful for maintaining an erection over a longer period.
Sildenafil in troche form offers the same PDE5-inhibiting effects as the tablet but with a slower, more controlled release. This can be especially beneficial for men who want to prolong the duration of their erection during sexual activity.
The troche dissolves slowly in your mouth, providing a steady release of Sildenafil into your bloodstream, which can help maintain an erection for an extended period.
Tadalafil troches are designed for those who want the long-lasting effects of Tadalafil with the added benefit of a slow, sustained release. As the troche dissolves, it gradually releases Tadalafil, ensuring that the medication remains active in your system for up to 36 hours. This makes it easier to engage in sexual activity whenever the opportunity arises, without the need for precise timing.
Vardenafil in troche form provides a steady, controlled release of the medication, which can be particularly useful for men who require consistent results. The slow dissolution of the troche ensures that Vardenafil is absorbed gradually, helping to maintain a firm erection over time. This option is ideal for those who need reliable performance during extended sexual activity.
Troches are a great alternative for men who prefer a slower, more sustained release of their medication. They are easy to use, discreet, and provide flexibility in how the medication is administered.
At Bayview Pharmacy, we are proud to offer a range of expertly compounded injectable medications for Erectile Dysfunction (ED). These injections are compounded in our state-of-the-art USP 797 Sterile Laboratory, ensuring the highest standards of quality and safety.
Injections are an effective option for men who need reliable results, often when other treatments haven’t worked. Each formulation is carefully crafted to provide optimal results with minimal side effects, allowing you to regain confidence in your sexual health.
Alprostadil is a straightforward yet powerful option for treating Erectile Dysfunction. As a single-agent therapy, it works by directly relaxing the blood vessels in the penis, which increases blood flow during sexual arousal, helping to achieve and maintain an erection.
This treatment is ideal for men who prefer a simpler approach, or who may be sensitive to combination therapies. Alprostadil injections are known for their quick action and ease of use, making them a dependable solution for many men.
Bi-Mix combines two active ingredients, Papaverine and Phentolamine, to provide a more effective solution than single-agent therapy. Papaverine relaxes the smooth muscles, while Phentolamine helps to dilate the blood vessels, leading to improved blood flow and a firm erection.
Bi-Mix is a great option for men who require more than a single-agent treatment but may not need the potency of a more complex combination. It’s particularly suitable for those new to injectable treatments or who need a reliable, moderate-strength option for managing ED.
Tri-Mix without Atropine is a more potent formulation that includes three active ingredients: Alprostadil, Papaverine, and Phentolamine. This combination enhances blood flow to the penis, providing a stronger and longer-lasting erection than Bi-Mix.
Tri-Mix without Atropine is ideal for men who need a robust solution to their ED but prefer to avoid Atropine. It offers a balanced approach that is effective across a wide range of ED severities, making it a versatile choice for many men.
Tri-Mix with Atropine adds an additional component, Atropine, to the Tri-Mix formula. Atropine further enhances the effects of Papaverine and Phentolamine by promoting additional muscle relaxation and increasing blood flow.
This makes Tri-Mix with Atropine an excellent choice for men who require a stronger formulation than standard Tri-Mix. It’s particularly effective for those who need enhanced potency and are looking for a more comprehensive treatment solution.
Quad-Mix represents the most potent injectable treatment we offer for Erectile Dysfunction, combining four active ingredients: Alprostadil, Atropine, Papaverine, and Phentolamine. This powerful combination is designed for men with severe ED who require maximum efficacy from their treatment.
Quad-Mix works by significantly increasing blood flow to the penis, providing a firm and long-lasting erection even in cases where other treatments may have failed. This formulation is the ideal choice for men who need the strongest possible solution to their ED.
At Bayview Pharmacy, we offer a variety of urethral gels specially compounded to treat Erectile Dysfunction (ED). These gels are designed for easy administration directly into the urethra, allowing the active ingredients to be absorbed locally.
This method can result in a quicker onset of action, making it an effective alternative for men who may not respond well to oral medications or prefer not to use injections. Each formulation is designed to deliver reliable results while minimizing side effects, providing a discreet and effective solution to ED.
Bi-Mix Urethral Gel is a simple yet effective combination of Papaverine and Phentolamine. Papaverine works by relaxing the smooth muscles in the penis, while Phentolamine helps to dilate the blood vessels, enhancing blood flow. This combination provides a straightforward solution for men who need a reliable and moderate-strength treatment for ED.
The gel is easy to apply and begins working quickly, making it a convenient option for those seeking a non-invasive treatment. Bi-Mix Gel is particularly suitable for men who are new to urethral gels or who require a manageable and consistent treatment.
Tri-Mix Urethral Gel combines three active ingredients: Alprostadil, Papaverine, and Phentolamine. Alprostadil is a potent vasodilator that enhances blood flow to the penis, while Papaverine and Phentolamine work together to further improve circulation.
This triple-action formula provides a stronger and more comprehensive treatment than Bi-Mix, making it ideal for men who need a more potent solution to achieve and maintain an erection. Tri-Mix Gel is designed to offer a balanced and effective treatment, with a quick onset and reliable results.
High-Dose Triple P Urethral Gel is a more potent version of the standard Tri-Mix, designed for men who require a higher concentration of active ingredients to effectively manage their ED.
This formulation includes increased levels of Alprostadil, Papaverine, and Phentolamine, providing a powerful treatment option for those with more severe ED or who have not responded well to lower doses. High-Dose Triple P Urethral Gel offers a robust solution with quick absorption and sustained effects, making it a reliable choice for men needing a more intensive treatment approach.
