Psychosocial Outcomes and Drug Attributes Affecting Treatment Choice in Men Receiving Sildenafil Citrate and Tadalafil for the Treatment of Erectile Dysfunction: Results of a Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label, Crossover Study

Abstract

As measured with PAIRS, men with ED had higher sexual self-confidence and spontaneity and less time concerns related to sexual encounters when treated with tadalafil compared with sildenafil. These psychosocial outcomes may help explain why more men (71%) preferred tadalafil for the treatment of ED in this clinical trial.
