General Safety

Detailed description: Surveys of sexual habits and behaviour have provided information on the 'window of opportunity' during which an ED medication should be effective. According to these surveys, the average time from thinking about having sex to doing so is less than 1 hour. Most men are unable to predict when they might have sex more than 30 minutes in advance. The aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy and tolerability of the licensed starting doses of vardenafil (10 mg) and tadalafil (10 mg) in patients with erectile issues (erectile dysfunction) who attempted sexual intercourse within 45 minutes of drug administration (i. e. during the early window of opportunity).
