Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Diabetes does affect the small blood vessels in the body. Thus affecting blood supply to penile muscles. Even when blood glucose is well controlled, this effect can be seen leading to erectile dysfunction. However, strict blood glucose control is helpful in reducing the problem. The tablet being used by you is the type of medicine recommended for overcoming the problem. There is no other option. Thanks.
