Quick Tips
  • You have been prescribed Edysta 5 for the treatment of erectile dysfunction.
  • It is best to take it an hour before sexual intercourse. But, you can take it anytime between 30 minutes and 4 hours before sexual activity.
  • Do not take it more than once a day.
  • It may also be used for treating the urinary symptoms of an enlarged prostate gland (benign prostatic hyperplasia).
  • It may cause dizziness or blurred vision. Do not drive or do anything requiring concentration until you know how it affects you.
