Uses glofel is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). glofel is used for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). glofel is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction and the signs of benign prostatic hyperplasia (ED/BPH). glofel is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), Erectile Dysfunction, Symptomatic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) How glofel works Penile erection during sexual stimulation is achieved by the relaxation of penile arteries and corpus cavernosal smooth muscles, leading to increased blood flow to the organ. This response is mediated by the release of nitric oxide (NO) from nerve terminals and endothelial cells, which stimulates the synthesis of cGMP in smooth muscle cells. Cyclic GMP causes smooth muscle relaxation and increased blood flow into the corpus cavernosum, and is degraded by the cGMP specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) in the corpus cavernosum located around the penis. glofel inhibits PDE5 and thereby enhances erectile function by increasing the amount of cGMP available. glofel Trade Name glofel Availability Prescription only Generic Tadalafil Tadalafil Other Names Tadalafil, Tadalafilo Related Drugs tamsulosin, finasteride, sildenafil, Flomax, prazosin, doxazosin, Viagra, Cialis, alprostadil, Levitra Weight 20mg Type Film-coated Tablet Dosage glofel dosage Erectile Dysfunction- For Use as Needed: o The recommended starting dose of glofel for use as needed in most patients is 10 mg, taken prior to anticipated sexual activity. o The dose may be increased to 20 mg or decreased to 5 mg, based on individual efficacy and tolerability.
