See How Combining Therapy and Meds Might Improve Outcomes

For millions of men, erectile dysfunction (ED) is a frustrating barrier to a fulfilling sex life. While medications like Viagra®, Cialis®, and Levitra® have been go-to solutions for years, they don’t always work for everyone—and they certainly don’t address the root cause of ED.

Enter GAINSWave®, a breakthrough, non-invasive therapy designed to restore natural erectile function by improving blood flow and regenerating tissue. But what happens when these two treatments are combined?

At Amore Medical, we’re often asked whether GAINSWave® can be used alongside ED medications—and the answer is a resounding yes. In fact, for many men, combining both can maximize results and lead to a more confident, satisfying, and spontaneous sex life.

In this blog, we’ll break down how ED medications and GAINSWave® work, how they complement one another, and what kind of outcomes men can expect from combination therapy.

Understanding Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection firm enough for sexual activity. It affects up to 50% of men over age 40, and the causes can be both physical and psychological.

Common causes of ED include:

• Poor blood circulation
• Nerve damage
• Diabetes or cardiovascular disease
• Low testosterone
• Medication side effects
• Performance anxiety or depression

Most ED medications are designed to treat symptoms, not root causes—which is where therapies like GAINSWave® shine.

How ED Medications Work

Medications like Viagra® (Sildenafil) and Cialis® (Tadalafil) are classified as PDE5 inhibitors. They help by:

• Relaxing blood vessel walls in the penis
• Increasing blood flow during sexual stimulation
• Enhancing the body’s natural erection response

Benefits:

• Quick, easy to use
• Effective for many men
• Improves confidence in the short term

Limitations:

• Requires timing and planning
• Doesn’t work for everyone (especially men with poor vascular health)
• Possible side effects: headaches, flushing, nasal congestion, vision changes
• No long-term repair of damaged tissue or arteries

ED medications are a band-aid, not a cure. If your erections depend solely on a pill, it may be time to consider a deeper solution.

What Is GAINSWave®?

GAINSWave® is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-intensity shockwave therapy (also known as acoustic wave therapy) to target the underlying cause of many cases of ED: poor blood flow and tissue damage.

How GAINSWave® Works:

• Breaks up micro-plaque in penile blood vessels
• Stimulates the growth of new blood vessels (angiogenesis)
• Increases oxygen and nutrient delivery
• Improves nerve sensitivity and sexual function
• Encourages long-term healing and regeneration

Each treatment takes about 20–30 minutes, requires no medication or downtime, and is performed in-office.

GAINSWave® vs. ED Medications

Can You Use GAINSWave® and ED Medications Together?

Yes! In fact, combining GAINSWave® therapy with ED medications can be an excellent strategy for men looking to improve both short-term performance and long-term function.

Here’s how they complement each other:

1. Enhanced Medication Response

Many men who haven’t responded well to oral ED meds begin to see better results after undergoing GAINSWave®. That’s because the therapy improves blood flow and vascular health, allowing the medication to work more effectively.

2. Reduced Dependence on Pills

As GAINSWave® restores natural erectile function, many patients find they no longer need medication—or need it far less frequently.

3. More Spontaneity

GAINSWave® can bring back natural, unassisted erections, allowing for spontaneous intimacy without planning around medication timing.

4. Multi-Layered Support

While the medication gives a short-term boost in performance, GAINSWave® is working in the background to reverse damage and rebuild tissue.

Ideal Candidates for Combination Therapy

You might benefit from combining GAINSWave® and ED medication if you:

• Have tried ED medications with limited or inconsistent success
• Want to reduce your reliance on pills
• Are looking for a long-term solution to ED
• Experience performance anxiety and want added confidence
• Have underlying health issues like high blood pressure, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease
• Are dealing with Peyronie’s disease or penile curvature
• Simply want to perform at your peak in every stage of life

What to Expect With Combination Treatment

Step 1: Private Consultation

At Amore Medical, we begin with a detailed consultation that includes:

• Full medical and sexual health history
• Hormone testing (if needed)
• Cardiovascular health review
• Lifestyle and medication assessment

We determine whether you're a candidate for GAINSWave®, medication, or a combination of both.

Step 2: Personalized Treatment Plan

Most patients receive 6–12 sessions of GAINSWave®, spaced out over several weeks. During this time, we may recommend the continued use of ED medication as needed—especially during the initial transition period.

We also monitor:

• Progress in erection quality
• Sensitivity and stamina
• Response to medication
• Any reduction in dosage or frequency

Step 3: Ongoing Optimization

We’ll adjust your plan based on your goals and response to treatment. Some men taper off medications entirely, while others use them only occasionally for an added boost. Booster GAINSWave® sessions every 6–12 months can help maintain results long-term.

Success Stories

“I was using Cialis every time I wanted to be intimate. After completing 8 GAINSWave sessions, I’m off pills completely and feeling 10 years younger.” — James, 55

“Pills helped but weren’t consistent. GAINSWave gave me confidence, and now the meds actually work when I need them. No more anxiety.” — Carlos, 47

“My performance has improved across the board. I still use Viagra occasionally, but GAINSWave made it 10x more effective.” — David, 62

Are There Any Risks?

GAINSWave® is considered very safe, with no major side effects. When used in combination with ED medications, we evaluate each patient to avoid:

• Drug interactions (especially if taking nitrates)
• Overmedication or incorrect dosing
• Underlying health issues that could affect safety

At Amore Medical, all treatment is supervised by experienced providers to ensure maximum safety and effectiveness.

How Long Until You See Results?

• ED Medications: Typically work within 30–60 minutes per dose
• GAINSWave®: Most men notice improvements after 3–4 sessions, with full results after 6–12 sessions
• Combination Benefits: Some men experience immediate performance enhancement from medication, followed by long-term improvements as GAINSWave® therapy progresses

GAINSWave® + Medication + Lifestyle = Peak Performance

For the best results, we often combine GAINSWave® and medications with additional lifestyle support, including:

• Hormone optimization (if testosterone is low)
• Nutritional counseling
• Cardiovascular fitness recommendations
• Stress and sleep management

This whole-body approach allows you to reclaim control of your sexual health—naturally and sustainably.

If you’ve been relying on pills for years—or you’ve been disappointed by the results—it’s time to take your performance to the next level. GAINSWave® offers a non-invasive, long-term solution that restores function, not just covers up symptoms.

When combined with ED medications, the results can be even more powerful—delivering short-term confidence and long-term freedom.

At Amore Medical, we provide a private, personalized experience for men ready to take control of their sexual wellness. Whether you’re new to treatment or looking for something more effective, we’re here to help you perform at your best.
