Guess what, ED drugs (really BP drugs because they were developed as vasidilators for blood pressure management) aren't legally available without a prescription.

I stand corrected, tadalafil is not OTC in many countries, only sildenafil is. Tadalafil is OTC where I live since 2022 and I assumed it’s the same elsewhere.

You can just buy them online. Legality is irrelevant to the topic.
