Why does effect of pde5 inhibitors stop working after some months or years? What are the means to make them work again? I've heard penile shockwave therapy works for that. Please throw some light on this.

Hello- the most common adverse drug reactions reported include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, nasopharyngitis, and dyspepsia. Rare but serious reports of prolonged erections lasting more than 4 hours and priapism (painful erections lasting more than 6 hours) have been reported with pde5 inhibitors. Shockwave therapy is not a safest idea.
