Can I Switch To Viridal From Caverject Dual Chamber?

I am currently using caverject dual chamber 20mcg, but this often out of stock and I have been told by my pharmacy won t be available until January 2016! This is obviously not good I can see another version called Viridal. Is there a problem switching from one to the other?

Hi, thanks for using Healthcare Magic.
I have read your query and understand your concern.

Both of Caverject Dual Chamber and Viridal are used for treating
“erectile dysfunction” including weak erections or impotence. Both contains alprostadil which is similar to the natural substance in our body called prostaglandin E1.

But, you have to discuss it firstly to your treating doctor before switching the one with another.
Take care.
