Abstract
Erectile dysfunction is a common benign disorder with significant impact on the quality of life of patients. Ten percent of the male adult population is affected. Sildenafil has been proven to be an effective and safe oral medication for the treatment of erectile dysfunction with a response rate of 78%. The incidence of side effects is low (10%) and side effects are usually mild and transient. The drug should be prescribed only after proper history taking, physical examination and basic investigations.
