Erectile dysfunction, also known as impotence or ED, is a condition where a man can’t get and/or maintain an erection, be it due to physical, emotional or environmental factors.
A study published by the Singapore Medical Journal revealed that among Singaporean men above the age of 30, about 1 in 2 of them have had ED at some point in their lives.
Despite its prevalence, many men still find it an embarrassing condition and one that they perhaps don’t want to talk about or delay getting treatment for. This can cause sexual and emotional frustration, especially since the cause is not always obvious.
What is the best medicine for erectile dysfunction (ED)?
The best treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED) is the one that is best for you.
All approved ED medications have been clinically tested and proven to be effective for treating ED, with some differences in:
- how fast they act;
- how long their effects last; and
- their costs (branded vs generic).

What is the difference between Cialis and generic Cialis (Tadalafil)?
Cialis and generic Cialis have the same active ingredient: tadalafil. Both medications work similarly in the body and have similar side effects. However, they differ in terms of price. Generic Cialis is cheaper than Cialis, but some men may prefer taking the branded version.
Will erectile dysfunction (ED) medication automatically give me an erection?
No, erectile dysfunction (ED) medication will not automatically give you an erection. You still need to be sexually aroused or stimulated to achieve an erection — ED medication simply makes this process easier when the time is right.
Will erectile dysfunction (ED) medication make me want to have sex?
Taking erectile dysfunction (ED) medication alone will not necessarily make you want to have sex. This is because ED medication doesn't directly affect your sex drive, or libido. That being said, having a stronger erection may make some men feel more confident—and this increased confidence may make men more willing and excited to engage in sex.
