If between partners spiritual affinity is not found, they will be very hard to achieve a harmonious sexual relationships.

Just 10 minutes after the administration of micro-suppository Alprostadil, a man’s ability to achieve erection is restored. However, an hour after the administration of micro-suppository Alprostadil, erection again disappears.

Herewith, duration of pharmacological effect of Alprostadil injections does not exceed one hour.

Each of these drugs restores erection an hour after oral use (on the average). However, the pharmacological effect of phosphodiesterase inhibitors lasts significantly longer than that of micro-suppository and injections Alprostadil.
