Trading bad habits for healthy ones can help you to improve erectile function and conceivably delay the need for erectile dysfunction medications. However, once you do need that extra help, you’ll save if you opt for generics over the brand-name drugs.

The introduction over the past few years of generic equivalents of four of the five brand-name erectile dysfunction medications has lowered the cost of treating ED significantly. However, there are steps you can take that might possibly cut those costs even more. Interested? Read on.

Consider Lifestyle Changes

Depending on the severity of your ED symptoms, some fundamental lifestyle changes could reduce them to the point that you no longer require ED drugs at all. Probably the first step to take is quitting bad habits, such as smoking, recreational drug use, and immoderate alcohol consumption.

As readers of this blog probably know by now, roughly 80 percent of all male impotence is caused by insufficient blood flow to the penis. And one of the many causes of vascular compromise is smoking. Among a host of other negative side effects, nicotine has an adverse impact on endothelial function. The endothelium is the thin layer of cells that line blood vessel walls and helps to regulate blood flow.

Your Body Can Bounce Back

The human body is an amazingly resilient mechanism. When you stop smoking, it almost immediately begins to repair the damage that smoking has caused. If the damage is not that great, you might soon find your body functioning as well or nearly as well as it was before you picked up the smoking habit.

And the body can bounce back from the damage caused by other unhealthy behaviors as well. Among the most common unhealthy behaviors of all are eating a less-than-nutritious diet and failure to exercise on a regular basis.

Eating a diet that’s high in unhealthy fats and low in nutritive value can lead to clogged arteries, which in turn can gradually decrease blood flow to the point that normal erectile function is no longer possible. Continuing that bad behavior could make things even worse, possibly leading to such serious cardiovascular episodes as a heart attack or stroke.

You Could Undo Some Damage

However, trading in those bad eating habits for healthy ones can begin to undo some of the damage that’s been done to your body. A healthy diet is one that includes plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, favors poultry and seafood over red meats, and minimizes your consumption of saturated and trans fats. For many, an ideal model eating plan is the so-called Mediterranean diet.

Couple healthier eating with a regular program of physical activity, and you will increase the benefits to your body, benefits that could result in improved erectile function. And improved erectile function may eliminate your need for pharmaceutical assistance to get an erection.

Pick Generics Over Brands

If the damage caused by your bad habits, unhealthy eating, and lack of exercise is already too great to be reversed by lifestyle changes, opting for generic ED drugs over brand-name can save you quite a bit of money.

As just one example, the average national price for a 50-milligram dose (the recommended starting dose) of Viagra hovers today around $42, a not inconsiderable sum. However, opting for sildenafil citrate, Viagra’s generic equivalent, can save you more than $22 per dose. The current average price for sildenafil is $19.50 per 50-millimeter dose.

Thus, taking proactive steps to reduce your need for ED drugs can extend normal erectile function for as long as possible, conceivably for the rest of your life. However, if you do eventually need extra help, buying generics instead of brand-name ED medications can reduce your costs to a minimum.

You might find that you can save even more money — and time as well — if you order your Viagra or other ED drugs from eDrugstore.com, a longtime online facilitator based in Tempe, Arizona. In business since the late 1990s, eDrugstore carries a complete range of ED medications, including both brand-name and generic drugs. To learn more, visit its Erectile Dysfunction page.
