A study has been carried out by a medical team in France which has been trumpeted around as though it has come up with some ground-breaking piece of news and it has had coverage in a few specialist medical journals. Basically, the research is stating that Cialis (tadalafil) can help men with spinal cord injuries get over any erectile dysfunction that they may be suffering. The problem with the research is that it compared the reaction against a control group on a placebo, which is fine, but no comparison was done against any of the other ED drugs available to prescribe such as Viagra and Levitra. Also, the overall response rate was 75%, which is more or less the average response rate of the entire ED population so we are not quite sure what is so newsworthy about this story! Cialis is a great drug, there is no doubt about that, and it is fast catching up with Viagra as the first choice medication for men suffering with ED. Maybe the research was commissioned by the manufacturer of in order to get a bit of publicity, hence the lack of comparison with the other ED drugs which would probably produce a similar response rate. It is certainly the case that Cialis is less well known than its close relative, Viagra, and they must want to rectify this state of affairs!
