These three medications have markedly improved the management of ED because they are effective for the treatment of a broad range of causes including psychogenic diabetic vasculogenic postradical prostatectomy nerve-sparing procedures and spinal cord injury.

They are administered in graduated doses and enhance erections after sexual stimulation. The onset of action is approximately 60-120 min depending on the medication used and other factors such as recent food intake.
