The erectile dysfunction medications

Well-known Erectile Dysfunction medications are:

• tadalafil (Cialis)
• vardenafil (Levitra)

Prescribed drugs increase the levels of nitric oxide in the blood. Nitric oxide being a vasodilator, makes your blood vessels increase the blood flow. Drugs are effective at widening the blood vessels in the penis. More blood in the penis is easier for you to maintain an erection if you are sexually aroused.
