Erectile dysfunction(ED), also known as "impotence" is the repeated inability to get or keep an erection for sexual intercourse. ED, can be a total inability to achieve erection, an inconsistent ability to do so, or a tendency to sustain only briefly. These different types make defining ED and estimating its spread, difficult. Estimates range from 15 million to 30 million, depending on the definition used. There has been a gradual decrease presumably, since treatments such as vacuum devices and drugs have become more widely available and discussing Erectile Dysfunction became accepted.
The most talked-about advance was the introduction of the oral drug sildenafil citrate (Generic Viagra) in March 1998. In older men, ED usually has a physical cause, such as disease, injury, or side effects of drugs.
ED is treatable at any age, and awareness of this fact has been growing.
Patient Background:
Medical and sexual histories help define the scale and type of ED. A medical history will show diseases that lead to ED, while a simple description of sexual activity will show those causes.
Physical Examination:
Physical examination can also give clues to these problems.
Laboratory Tests:
Several laboratory tests can help diagnose ED. Tests for general diseases include blood counts, urinalysis, lipid profile, and measurements of creatinine and liver enzymes.
Other Tests:
Certain other tests may be required depending on the Doctor's decision

Are generic drugs equal to brand name products?
Yes generic prescription drugs are equal to brand. Brand is patented by a company first. As you accurately observe, the main difference between generics and brand-name drugs is the cost. Generics cost less than a third as much as their brand-name counterparts. Once the patent runs out other companies make the same drug with same ingredients. It is copied and made cheaper. They are the same ingredients and do the same job. All in all the generic might end up quite a bit less or more potent than the branded drug.
It is better to keep in mind that although the ingredients and stated potencies may be the same for both brand and generic meds, other characteristics may cause them to differ in the body. These companies pay large amounts of money to catch your attention, and that money factors into the cost you pay. The best example involves sustained-release products. There has been some anecdotal evidence suggesting some types of drugs may react significantly differently between the generic and brand. However, according to the FDA, they all undergo and meet the same strict regulations for safety and efficacy. Still, some docs may not want to risk even the small chance that a generic will react differently from the brand. But remember, with most generics, you’re probably not going to see any difference at all, except you might find a bit more cash in your pocket.
