Modern ED therapy, which in the first line consists of PDE5 inhibitors (PDE5-I) application, is safe and effective and is well tolerated. Avanafil, a new agents, is a highly potent PDE5 inhibitor and highly selective for PDE5.
Results of phase III clinical trials suggest that avanafil is an effective and well tolerated treatment for ED of broad-spectrum aetiology and severity. The improvement in sexual function and tolerability coupled with the rapid onset of action and durability of effect make avanafil a viable tool for on demand treatment of ED.
