Indications & Clinical Uses

Vitaros Cream-300mcg is indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED).

  • Erectile dysfunction: Helps achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse.
  • Poor blood circulation in the penis: Enhances blood flow to the penile area.
  • Nerve damage: Assists in achieving an erection by bypassing nerve-related issues.
  • Emotional problems: Can aid in overcoming psychological barriers to achieving an erection.
  • Hormonal problems: May help in cases where hormonal imbalances contribute to ED.

How It Works

  • Alprostadil is a synthetic prostaglandin E1 analogue that relaxes smooth muscle and dilates blood vessels via increased intracellular cAMP, enhancing penile blood flow. This mechanism helps achieve and maintain an erection by improving blood circulation in the penile area.

Vitaros Cream-300mcg is a topical cream that contains alprostadil, a prostaglandin analog, which works by improving blood flow to the penile area. Compared to other ED treatments like oral medications (e.g., sildenafil, tadalafil) or injections, Vitaros offers a localized treatment option that may be preferable for some patients. The choice of treatment depends on individual patient needs, medical history, and preferences.

Vitaros Cream-300mcg is applied topically to the penis. The cream is expelled into the opening at the tip of the penis and down the urethra. Hold the penis in an upright position for approximately 30 seconds to allow the cream to penetrate. Any excess cream covering the opening at the tip of the penis should be gently moved into the opening with the tip of a finger. Do not use a second AccuDose to compensate for cream not expelled into the opening.

The most serious risks to watch for with Vitaros Cream-300mcg include prolonged erection for more than 4 hours (priapism), which can cause permanent damage to the penis if not treated promptly. Other serious risks include severe pain at the application site, severe allergic reactions, and a significant drop in blood pressure. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek immediate medical attention.

Vitaros Cream-300mcg should not be used by individuals with certain underlying disorders, such as a drop in blood pressure when going from a lying/sitting to a standing position, history of a heart attack, and syncope (dizziness).
