title: [Tadalafil for erectile dysfunction: efficacy evaluation].
abstract: A new type of phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor, Tadalafil, has been used clinically to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). In this review, we analyzed the recent findings from the clinical trials on tadalafil in ED treatment. All data showed that oral tadalafil was an effective and well-tolerated therapeutic for ED, with many potential pharmacological actions. All this may help to give full play to the clinical value of tadalafil.
