Weak erections or an inability to get an erection often has the same cause. The main difference in treatment is in the strength of the dose you are prescribed.
Options include:

Oral medication follows after an examination, where the physician will advise the patient as to whether he should pursue this option.

Self-injection therapy with a very fine needle and syringe involves inserting medication into the penis . The medication is easily and painlessly self-injected just before sex, thus creating a firm and sustained erection. For men with less severe erectile dysfunction (ED), injection therapy has a higher chance of a total cure so that the man will no longer require medication to obtain and maintain a firm erection. This treatment has a success rate of over 95%

A vacuum device involves placing the penis in a hollow vacuum tube and inducing an erection in it. The pump draws the air out of the tube and the blood into the penis. The erection is sustained by placing a specially designed rubber band at the base of the penis.

A urethral gel suppository involves gently inserting a tiny amount of gel into the urethra (the pathway for urine). The medication is absorbed into the penile tissue, causing an erection.
