Cialis on NHS 'should be limited to two pills a month'

Cialis prescriptions should be limited to two pills a month, according to new recommendations by NHS managers.

GPs are being urged to limit prescriptions of erectile dysfunction drugs (Cialis, Levitra & Viagra) under new guidelines from The South Central Priorities Committee.

The document also advised against counselling for sexual problems.

The recommendations to reduce erectile dysfunction medication (Cialis, Levitra & Viagra) cover health trusts in Milton Keynes, Oxfordshire, Berkshire East, Berkshire West and Buckinghamshire.

Cost-effectiveness

The recommendations to reduce erectile dysfunction medication (Cialis, Levitra and Viagra) appear in a document from the priorities committee in which GPs are urged to apply the two-tablet limit to prescriptions for the erectile dysfunction drugs sildenafil (Viagra), vardenafil (Levitra) and tadalafil (Cialis).

It said the committee had "considered the evidence of clinical and cost-effectiveness in reducing erectile dysfunction medication (such as Cialis, Levitra & Viagra) and the financial impact on the health economy of treatment for erectile dysfunction".

This is despite existing NHS guidance saying there "appears to be no clinical reason to restrict the number of tablets" of erectile dysfunction medicine prescribed to an individual (like Cialis, Levitra and Viagra).

Erectile dysfunction drugs (Cialis, Levitra & Viagra) are already restricted on the NHS to people suffering from conditions such as diabetes, prostate cancer, spinal injury, Parkinson's disease, spina bifida, multiple sclerosis and polio.

"Psychosexual interventions such as counselling and psychotherapy comprise a group of techniques with limited evidence for effectiveness and no evidence of cost-effectiveness," it stated.

A spokesperson for NHS Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire said the committee "cannot prohibit prescribing erectile dysfunction medication (such as Cialis, Levitra and Viagra) but will form a recommendation to GPs."

Richard Hoey, editor of GP magazine, Pulse, said: "Limiting patients to erectile dysfunction drugs like Cialis, Levitra & Viagra just twice a month is to treat sex like an unnecessary luxury, and completely fails to recognise the degree of anguish it can cause some men with erectile dysfunction."
