Tadalafil prescription

You could ask your GP, but you might have more success asking the hospital. They will probably write to your GP asking for them to be prescribed, which might be more effective than you asking your GP.

If you draw a blank with the GP, there are online NHS pharmacies which will provide them if you say you have ED - they have a doctor who will write the prescription. You will have to pay for the tablets, but they aren't expensive providing you avoid the Cialis brand. Do beware that these are some of the most commonly counterfeited drugs though, so I would make sure you use an NHS online pharmacy, even though you are buying privately.

Thanks for the advice, Kev - I will go down that route.

I'll let you know how I get on !

Did they send you home with a supply then mate? I had my op around the same time as you, and there was no mention of any kind of ED assistance yet. I just assumed it was too early and that they would talk about hat at some point later?

I've got a follow up appt on the 22nd, so maybe I'll raise it then (excuse the poor pun).

Hi Ian,

Thanks for your reply and pun appreciated/forgiven!

I wasn't necessarily expecting to have the Tadalafil tablets in my discharge pack from the hospital pharmacy, as I wasn't sure how nerve sparing had happened. Regardless, I just got on with taking them and whilst I can't say any erections have taken place, I can feel some activity down there! Maybe it's my imagination, who knows?

Hence posting my question about getting a repeat prescription. My (telephone) follow up with Urology has been booked for 17/9, so I'll certainly ask them more then as well but, thanks to the advice from Kev and Andy,  I've just emailed the consultant's secretary to ask if he can contact the GP.

Good luck with your recovery and hope the Tadalafil works for you when you get it! Keep us in touch with your progress..

Hi,

Thanks for the info on trustworthy online pharmacies - very useful!!

To update on my experience, after receiving no response initially to my email, I phoned the Urolology medical secretary at the hospital and she advised that I should contact my GP for a Tadalafil prescription.

My GP - who has been very supportive throughout my prostate "journey" - was understanding and without any hesitation added Tadalafil to my regular repeat prescription. 

My post op follow up (telephone) meeting with the Consultant was unfortunately postponed until mid October, so I won't get his opinion on how likely an improvement Tadalafil might offer in my case. From my point of view, two months after the op, the jury is out at the minute on whether I have a lively imagination or if there is any improvement. So, I'll keep taking the tablets !!
