Reclassification of sildenafil had a modest impact on prescribing practices. There is a dearth of research in relation to presentation and management of ED in primary care, particularly in the UK. This study shows that over the past 10 years, there has been more than a two-fold increase in the rate of primary care prescriptions for ED, accounting for the changes in population. The reclassification of sildenafil as a pharmacy medicine in 2018 seemed to have modest impact on the prescribing trend. It is very likely that more men are being assessed for ED or seeking help in primary care in England. The higher rate of prescribing offers opportunity for monitoring of linked risk factors, such as diabetes mellitus, dyslipidaemia, and vascular disorders, in deprived populations. Reclassification of sildenafil had a modest impact on prescribing practices.

ED, ‘the persistent inability to achieve or maintain an erection that is sufficient to permit satisfactory sexual performance’, can affect the physical, emotional, and psychosocial health of the sufferer.1 ED can have both an organic and psychogenic origin, and can be a risk marker for underlying cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and mental health conditions, which may warrant further evaluation and treatment.2,3 Medications, such as antihypertensives, antidepressants, and antipsychotics, can also lead to ED through their mechanisms of action.2 A systematic review reported that men with ED have an increased risk of all-cause mortality (odds ratio [OR] = 1.26; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.01 to 1.57) and CVD mortality (OR = 1.43; 95% CI = 1.00 to 2.05).4 The global prevalence of ED has been estimated to range from 3%–76.5%.4 A significant number of patients are known to suffer in isolation and do not seek help. Therefore, prevalence data are likely to be an underestimate.5 It is common for men with ED to experience anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and a lack of sexual confidence.2,3 These factors often lead to poorer quality of life for the sufferer, their partner, and family. Both pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment options are available for the treatment of ED. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) in England recommends using phosphodiesterase type-five inhibitors (PDE-5I) as a firstline pharmacological treatment option for men with ED. Four PDE-5Is are currently licensed in the UK and include sildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil, and avanafil.5 However, only sildenafil and tadalafil remain the drugs of choice. Sildenafil was reclassified in March 2018 by the UK’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) to ‘pharmacy-only’ medicine, which allowed community and online pharmacies to supply the drug to the patients without the need of a prescription.6 MHRA make decisions to alter the legal status of medicines in the UK from ‘prescription-only’ to ‘pharmacy’ or ‘general sales list’ categories (Table 1).7,8 The decision to reclassify such medicines are primarily based on safety data.7 Such reclassifications are often expected to reduce the volume of prescribing and costs from the perspective of the NHS as patients are required to pay the price of the medicines at the point of purchase. A cardiovascular risk assessment by a pharmacist in the community pharmacy is a prerequisite to pharmacy supply of sildenafil.9 Such risk assessment is undertaken using a series of questions asked to the patients before a supply can be made. Sildenafil is still available on NHS prescription along with tadalafil, vardenafil, and avanafil. There is a lack of research in relation to presentation and management of ED in primary care, particularly in the UK. To date, no longitudinal research has looked into the prescribing patterns and costs of PDE-5Is in English primary care settings. Given the association of ED with CVDs, including diabetes, vascular disorders, and mental health conditions,2,3,10 understanding any link that exists between deprivation and ED drugs prescribing trend will enable targeted interventions to manage comorbidities and reduce health inequality. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the trend in quantity and cost of prescribing of sildenafil and tadalafil in primary care settings in England between 2009 and 2019. Specific objectives related to the investigation of: a) whether a prescribing trend of ED drugs is associated with deprivation and demography of various English geographical regions; and b) whether the legal reclassification of sildenafil to ‘pharmacy-only’ medicine has impacted on the trend in quantity and cost of prescribing of ED drugs in England. A secondary analysis of routinely collected data on the prescribing and dispensing of buy cialis over the counter two ED drugs, sildenafil and tadalafil, within the NHS England primary care settings between January 2009 and November 2019, was conducted. This time period includes switches from patented medicines to generic drugs for both tadalafil and sildenafil, as well as the reclassification of sildenafil to ‘pharmacy-only’ medicine in March 2018. Prescribing datasets were extracted from NHS Digital sources including OpenPrescribing.net and Prescription Cost Analysis (PCA).11 These included data on the number of items prescribed, cost of prescribing, and prescribing patterns within specific clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) for both drugs.

Data were adjusted for inflation using the Bank of England inflation calculator based on Office for National Statistics (ONS) composite price index.12 Data were also adjusted for male population estimates for each year.13 All data were extracted, independently checked for accuracy, and analysed using Microsoft Excel and IBM SPSS Statistics (version 21). Prescription patterns in the 10 most and the 10 least deprived CCGs as per the ONS Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) in 2015 (Table 2) were also extracted and analysed to explore the link between prescribing pattern and deprivation. The CCGs are clinically-led autonomous NHS bodies involved in planning and commissioning healthcare services for their locality. The 10 most deprived and the 10 least deprived CCGs covered a population of 1.38 million and 1.30 million, respectively. Number of items prescribed for ED increased by 110% between 2009 and 2019 (Figure 1). The increase in the number of items prescribed was mostly accounted for by sildenafil prescriptions, which increased by 165%. There were 2 145 393 items for ED prescribed in 2009 and 4 505 623 cialis tadalafil 10mg tablets in 2019. The biggest year-on-year increase in the number of prescriptions was seen in 2014–2015, where an increase of 24% was observed.

The total items prescribed for sildenafil was relatively steady from 2009–2013, at around 48 items prescribed a year per 1000 men. The prescribing increased rapidly from 2013–2017. The highest yearly increase occurred from 2014–2015, which showed a 42.1% increase. A 5.8% yearly increase in the rate of prescription was observed between 2017 and 2018.

Tadalafil makes hard easy

In the least deprived region, the rate of increase in the number of prescriptions was 38.9% during the same period (Figure 2). A wide variation in the rate of prescribing across the six English regions were observed. The North East and the North West regions had approximately 50% higher rates of prescribing compared with London. Rates of prescribing were 15.9, 15.3, and 10.3 items per 1000 men each month, respectively, in these regions (Figure 3). The aim of this study was to investigate the trend in prescribing of drugs for ED in primary care settings in England and to assess the impact of deprivation, regional demography, and legal reclassification of sildenafil on prescribing practices of ED drugs.

Strengths and limitations

There was a persistent increase in the rate of prescribing for treatment of ED in men between 2009 and 2019 in English primary care. Sildenafil remained the most frequently prescribed medication out of the two drugs of choice. A strong link between deprivation and prescribing trends were observed across all data points. These can be linked to higher prevalence of risk factors of ED, such as cardiovascular and mental health conditions, with deprivation.14 A north–south divide was observed in the rate of prescriptions, with higher prescribing rates observed in the northern regions of England compared with London and the southern regions. A 0.5% increase in the rate of prescribing between 2018 and 2019 was observed, suggesting modest impact of reclassification on the prescribing practices. The number of items prescribed per 1000 men were 124.2 and 125.8 in 2018 and 2019, respectively. The spending on primary care prescriptions for ED decreased by 71.0% from £77.4 million in 2009 to £22.4 million in 2019. The spending on sildenafil decreased by 90% and tadalafil decreased by 75%. The biggest decreases were seen after 2014 for sildenafil and 2018 for tadalafil (Figure 1). The most deprived regions consistently showed higher rates of prescriptions for ED drugs.

Medication Name	Active Ingredient	Effectiveness Rank	Price (€)	Common Side Effects	Notes
Viagra	Sildenafil	High	20-45	Headache, flushing	Similar to Cialis, different onset time
Levitra	Vardenafil	Moderate	25-40	Dizziness, nasal congestion	Shorter duration
Stendra	Avanafil	High	30-50	Flushing, dizziness	Faster onset

In 2019 there were 190.4 items prescribed per 1000 men of all ED drugs in the most deprived region. This figure was approximately 21.0% higher compared with the data from the least deprived regions, where a total of 150.5 items were prescribed per 1000 men.

An overall 24.9% increase in prescription items was observed from 2015–2019.
