Is there any alternative medicines other than levitra for prostrate cancer?
Patient: As a result of prostrate cancer treatment (bracheotherapy) I have had a prescription for levitra to assist me when needed. It gives me headaches so I use about 1/3 of a 20 mg tablet. Lately, it does not work as well. Is there something else that would be better. Should I try different alternatives to find the best? Do I need a prescription? Doctor: Most of the side effects of radiotherapy, including erectile dysfunction improve with time, although the time needed for this to happen is variable and unpredictable and sometimes quite long. Also, there is not much that can be done for this besides using the drug that you already are using. To avoid the headaches you can take plenty of water half an hour before taking the drug and then increase the dose. That should suffice for the moment, till the time you completely recover. All the best.
