Ro Sparks Review | Combination ED Treatments in 2024 (2024)

Ro Sparks Review | Combination ED Treatments in 2024 (1)

Photo by Innerbody Research

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is incredibly prevalent, affecting around a third of all men in the U.S. For many men, small doses of Viagra, Cialis, or either of their generic active ingredients aren’t quite enough to tackle their ED. Increasing the dose is one option to improve outcomes, but there’s also evidence that combination therapy (e.g., Viagra and Cialis taken together) might be a superior choice to monotherapies.

Ro Sparks is a combination ED medication that puts together both generic equivalents of Viagra and Cialis. Sparks’ doses of each medication — sildenafil and tadalafil, respectively — are high enough that either would work well on its own for many men. For those who need a little extra medication to achieve an erection, the two doses in combination should get the job done.

But are there increased risks associated with combining these higher doses? And is the combination approach a good place for men who haven’t yet tried ED medications to start? Our research team investigates the science to find out.

Our Findings

Editor's Rating3.40

For men who need more than a single ED medication can offer, the combination of 50mg sildenafil and 22mg tadalafil in Ro Sparks presents a strong option that’s likely to boost their chances of success. The fact that it comes as a dissolving sublingual tablet adds a layer of convenience, at least in theory, removing the need to chase it with a glass of water. However, the tablet takes a little too long to dissolve to be a truly convenient option, even if the sublingual delivery lets the medication take effect more quickly. In the end, Ro Sparks is a niche product for a subset of men with ED who may certainly benefit from it, but it’s not the best place to start for men who are new to ED meds. If you've never tried ED medications before, learn about better starting points using our comprehensive guide to the best ED treatments.

Pros

Why you should trust us

At Innerbody Research, we thoroughly research and test every product and service we review, including Ro Sparks. Our team has been evaluating products in the ED space for the better part of a decade, reading more than 100 scholarly articles on ED and its potential treatments and ordering and trying products from over a dozen companies.

For this review of Ro Sparks, we leveraged our previous research and testing of competing products in the ED space and took a close look at the specifics of sublingual medication delivery, as well as the potential efficacy of Sparks’ specific doses and medication combination. We also ordered Sparks for ourselves so we could report back on things like customer experience and taste. Additionally, like all health-related content on this website, this guide was thoroughly vetted by one or more members of our Medical Review Board for accuracy and will continue to be monitored for updates by our editorial team.

Over the past two decades, Innerbody Research has helped tens of millions of readers make more informed decisions about staying healthy and living healthier lifestyles.

How we evaluated Ro Sparks

In evaluating Ro Sparks, we had an enormous amount of ED medication research to reference, as well as years spent scrutinizing medical offerings from many of Ro’s competitors. We also have numerous pieces involving Ro’s other ED offerings, like its traditional tablets and daily tadalafil gummies.

For Sparks, we applied the same criteria we’ve used in most of those other articles, looking closely at efficacy and safety but also comparing costs to other products. Additionally, since Sparks is billed as more convenient than other ED medications, our convenience consideration was crucial.

Let’s take a closer look at each criterion to see how Sparks measures up.

Effectiveness

Rating: 9 / 10

If efficacy were your only consideration, Ro Sparks would probably be a good fit. Research typically regards 50mg of sildenafil to be an average dose, with 25mg being used in older patients or patients with certain cardiovascular risk factors. For as-needed tadalafil, 10mg is considered an average dose, with 20mg considered a high dose.

Ro Sparks combines a 50mg sildenafil dose with a 22mg tadalafil dose. The sildenafil dose is certainly right in line with the average, but 22mg of tadalafil is especially high. Research has indicated linear pharmacokinetics for tadalafil doses between 2.5mg and 20mg (higher doses resulting in improved outcomes). Studies on doses above 20mg are scarce, but there’s no reason to believe the linear pattern wouldn’t continue here, making 22mg a hair more effective than 20mg.

Increases in efficacy are a result of more than just individual ingredient doses, as well. The act of combining PDE5 inhibitors like sildenafil and tadalafil appears to work better than taking one of these medications in isolation. A systematic review of combination therapies versus monotherapies concluded that combination therapies were superior.

Here’s a quick look at the drugs and doses available in similar combination treatments from Ro and its closest competitor, Hims:

Ro SparksHims Hard Mints
Sildenafil50mg45mg
Tadalafil22mg11.2mg
Vardenafil (instead of sildenafil)N/A11.2mg

Hims offers vardenafil as an alternative to sildenafil in its Hard Mints, which is nice for men concerned with one of sildenafil’s rarer side effects. But Ro offers more sildenafil and double the dose of tadalafil per tablet. However, those higher doses may increase side effect risks, which we’ll discuss in our next section.

Safety

Rating: 7.2 / 10

The big trade-off when switching from a lower PDE5 dose to a higher dose, or from switching from a monotherapy to a combination therapy, is an increased risk of side effects.

To be fair, there hasn’t been any side effect research into the specific doses Ro uses in combination to determine their safety compared to a lower-dose combination or monotherapy. But studies into sildenafil and tadalafil on their own reveal dose-dependent relationships with many adverse effects. For example, a 2006 study from the journal Urology showed a marked increase in headache, malaise, dyspepsia, and nasal congestion as tadalafil doses increased from 5mg to 20mg. Studies in sildenafil have shown a similar linear pattern, with 100mg doses causing more adverse effects than 50mg or 25mg doses.

One study looking into 5mg of daily tadalafil combined with a 50mg as-needed sildenafil dose found that the addition of as-needed sildenafil to a daily tadalafil regimen didn’t remarkably increase adverse effects. However, there were slight increases in flushing, dyspepsia, and muscle pain.

So, it’s not far-fetched to believe that a 50mg sildenafil dose combined with a 22mg tadalafil dose would pose a higher side effect risk than either drug alone or a lower-dose combination of these two drugs, but without hard data to back the assertion, it remains conjecture. For many men, especially those who’ve already tried higher doses of either medication, Ro Sparks may be perfectly safe. But if you haven’t tried either medication at as high a dose, it would likely be smart to start elsewhere and work your way up toward Sparks should monotherapies or less potent combination therapies prove fruitless.

Cost

Rating: 7 / 10

For what it contains, Ro Sparks’ pricing isn't all that bad. The problem is that it’s too expensive an option compared to alternative monotherapies or certain similar custom combinations offered by rivals.

Here’s another head-to-head comparison between Ro and Hims for their respective combination treatments:

Ro SparksHims Hard Mints
4 doses$48 monthly, $43 quarterlyN/A
6 doses$72 monthly, $67 quarterly$42 monthly, $36 quarterly
8 doses$96 monthly, $91 quarterly$56 monthly, $48 quarterly
10 doses$120 monthly, $115 quarterly$70 monthly, $60 quarterly
16 dosesN/A$112 monthly, $96 quarterly
Lowest cost per dose$10.75$6

Obviously, the Hims option is less expensive, but it’s worth remembering that it’s also less potent.

A stronger option exists from Rugiet, a company that makes sublingual lozenges at various strengths but only sells them in six-dose packets with no other savings options for buying more or billing quarterly. Its medium-strength combination includes 65mg sildenafil, 22mg tadalafil, and 2mg apomorphine for $100. That’s $16.67/dose, more expensive than Ro and Hims combined.

So, Sparks occupies a specific price point for its strength, one that isn’t the best place for most men to start, whether or not they’re new to ED medications. If its specific dose turns out to be the sweet spot for your needs, it’s a fair price compared to slightly more potent alternatives.

Convenience

Rating: 6.5 / 10

Convenience is at the heart of a recent surge in oral alternatives to traditional ED pills. The trend started when BlueChew began offering convenient, individually wrapped chewable tablets of the top generic medications. Hims soon followed suit with its Hard Mints and Sex Chews, and other companies jumped on the bandwagon.

Sparks differ from Hims or BlueChew in that they’re designed to dissolve under the tongue, much like Rugiet Ready’s lozenges. Sublingual administration makes them as convenient as the competition in that you don’t need a glass of water to take them, but that convenience can be a double-edged sword. For Sparks, the other edge is the time it takes for the tablets to dissolve: ten minutes.

If you wait too long to take it, you may have to spend those ten minutes on some kind of foreplay that involves neither your genitals nor your mouth. For some, this will spur creativity. For others, it will be a source of frustration and possibly a mood killer. Of course, the tadalafil in Sparks can work for up to 36 hours, so you don’t have to consume it as close to the event as possible. Even sildenafil should last for around six hours, giving you a fair window to consume the tablet before sex.

Compared to Hims’ Hard Mints, which come grouped in a nice little tin, Ro Sparks are individually wrapped, which our testers found much more convenient. Rather than having a tin full of ED meds jangling around in your pocket, you can have a more discreetly packaged pill with you that takes up less space and is totally silent.

What is Ro Sparks?

Ro Sparks Review | Combination ED Treatments in 2024 (2)

Photo by Innerbody Research

Ro Sparks is a prescription medication for ED that combines two of the most popular ED drugs on the market: sildenafil (generic for Viagra) and tadalafil (generic for Cialis). These drugs have a long history of clinical research supporting their efficacy and relative safety.

With Ro Sparks, both drugs are delivered in a single dissolving tablet that you hold under your tongue for approximately ten minutes as your saliva breaks it down. That sublingual (under the tongue) dissolution allows the drugs to pass through oral membranes and enter the bloodstream more quickly than they would if you just swallowed a pill. That’s because sublingual delivery bypasses hepatic metabolism, which is a fancy way to say that you don’t have to digest it for it to start working. The result is an onset time of about 15 minutes, rather than the 30-60 minutes seen with traditional ED pills.

Insider Tip: If you’re getting mixed up between Ro and Roman, you’re not to blame. Ro is Roman’s parent company, and in the years we’ve covered it, it’s traditionally applied the Roman brand to its men’s health products and the Ro brand elsewhere. However, the Ro brand has slowly been taking over, consolidating the company’s marketing presence under a single name. But products previously labeled with the Roman name still bear it, creating some confusion. Rest assured that both names represent the same company.

Ro’s company reputation

Despite being an accredited business with an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, Ro’s consumer rating on the BBB website isn’t great. It currently stands at 1.23 out of five stars. However, that’s from just 56 reviews, which isn’t quite enough to reach statistical significance of any kind. Many of the negative reviews here appear to arise from a misunderstanding around payment timing when you sign up. As soon as you’re approved for a prescription, you’ll get billed, which seems to take some people by surprise, though we found the policy to be pretty clear.

The picture on Trustpilot is much better, with nearly 1,200 reviews resulting in an even 4.0 rating out of five stars. Negative reviews here sometimes touch on the same payment timing issues that populated the reviews on the BBB site, but there are also numerous mentions of certain products lacking efficacy for customers without a lot of additional data on things like ailment, product, or dose.

Ultimately, this paints a picture of a company with a fairly good reputation marred at times by a lack of clarity in the eyes of customers who get billed unexpectedly, perhaps having missed some of Ro’s disclamatory language about payments.

How does Ro Sparks work?

Ro Sparks contains two ED drugs that both belong to the same drug class: phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. These drugs don’t spontaneously give you an erection — a common misconception reinforced by some popular media. Instead, they create a situation in the body that’s more conducive to establishing an erection as a response to erotic stimuli, be it physical or psychological.

To get a sense of how this works, it helps to understand a little about what happens when arousal leads to an erection.

In response to stimuli, the male body releases additional nitric oxide, spurring an increase in cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP, not to be confused with current Good Manufacturing Practices [also cGMP], a standard of supplement manufacture). cGMP relaxes the muscles responsible for blood vessel constriction in and around the penis, allowing blood to flood into the chambers of the penis’ muscular tissue, the corpus cavernosa, resulting in an erection.

PDE5 comes along to regulate this action by breaking down cGMP, with a flood of the enzymes arriving post-climax. But timing and signaling issues can throw the dance out of whack, resulting in an erection that’s too soft for penetrative sex or completely preventing an erection from forming.

PDE5 inhibitors like the ones found in Ro Sparks inhibit the proliferation of PDE5 enzymes, allowing cGMP to accumulate enough that an erection becomes possible.

Who is Ro Sparks for, and who might want to look elsewhere?

Ro Sparks is only available as a combination therapy at one specific combination of doses. As a result, it’s really only ideal for a narrow band of men dealing with ED.

Here’s a simple breakdown to illustrate what men should try Sparks:

Men who...Start with a monotherapyTry a low-dose combination therapyTry Ro Sparks
Are new to ED medication
Have had poor results with ED monotherapies
Have had decent results with combination therapies but may need a higher dose
Want to throw caution to the wind and try a potent combination of drugs

Those first two conditions — men new to treatment and those who’ve hit a wall with monotherapies — will apply to the vast majority of men with ED. There’s some evidence that long-term use of PDE5 inhibitors can result in a kind of tolerance, but the evidence for this is still somewhat poor. That said, if you were to develop a tolerance, graduating to a combination therapy might be a logical next step.

Is Ro Sparks safe?

Ro Sparks should be relatively safe for men whose intake questionnaires lead Ro-affiliated medical professionals to deem them suitable for a prescription. That said, there are a few limitations regarding the ability to evaluate Ro Sparks’ safety with a high degree of accuracy.

Firstly, there are no studies looking specifically at this dose combination (50mg sildenafil combined with 22mg tadalafil). A dedicated study of this specific combination would give us a better sense of potential adverse effect rates.

Second, there are no studies looking at how this combination would be absorbed sublingually. There is at least one study combining sildenafil and tadalafil, but it used a low daily dose of tadalafil (typically 5mg) and a 50mg dose of sildenafil, and it administered them both via traditional oral tablets. The good news is that this study didn’t illustrate any meaningful increase in side effects when the two were combined compared to tadalafil on its own.

Another study looking at sublingual administration of sildenafil in two children with heart issues found an increase in plasma concentration of over 300%. Ro even touts this potential increase in potency by advertising a 15-minute activation time, as compared to the usual 30-60 minutes it takes oral sildenafil and tadalafil tablets to kick in. Without a dedicated adverse effect study comparing rates and intensity of adverse effects between oral tablets and sublingual administration, we can’t get hard data about Sparks’ safety.

Third, studies looking at tadalafil’s safety often establish 20mg as the high dose, leading to a dearth of information about what a dose above 20mg could offer for safety (or efficacy). Studies looking at the range of 2.5-20mg have established a linear, dose-dependent relationship with adverse effects, so 22mg should follow that pattern. But that’s still conjecture at this time.

If you do experience side effects from Ro Sparks, they’ll likely take the form of headache, dyspepsia, flushing, muscle pain, or vision disturbances in blue-green color processing. These are mostly due to interactions with other PDE enzyme groups like PDE6 and PDE11. There are also certain cardiovascular risks associated with PDE5 inhibitors that you’ll go over in your questionnaire or with your consulting physician as you apply for a prescription.

Ro Sparks pricing

Many companies will offer you savings for buying more of a given product. They’ll usually increase those savings as the size of your purchase increases. But Ro’s model winds up working out in favor of smaller purchases, thanks to a $15 discount on all quarterly orders.

Here’s a quick look:

Cost per month (monthly billing)Cost per dose (monthly billing)Cost per month (quarterly billing)Cost per dose (quarterly billing)
Four doses$48$12$43$10.75
Six doses$72$12$67$11.17
Eight doses$96$12$91$11.34
Ten doses$120$12$115$11.50

As you can see, the price per dose remains static at $12 for monthly orders, no matter how much you buy. If you opt for quarterly billing and shipping, you’ll save $15 on each quarter, and $15 is a much higher percentage of $48 than it is of $120. The result is a lower cost per dose at the four-dose-per-month level than at any other quarterly level.

Compare that to Hims Hard Mints, which has 45mg of sildenafil and 11mg of tadalafil for as little as $6/dose, and you’ll see why it makes more sense for most men to start there, especially if they're new to combination therapies.

Shipping from Ro is free, and there are no returns on prescription products unless they arrive damaged or otherwise unsuitable for consumption.

Alternatives to Ro Sparks

Because Ro Sparks is really only ideal for a small subset of men who’ve tried ED medications in the past and are interested in a high-dose combination therapy, it’s important to investigate alternatives for anyone else interested in treating their ED. Some of these are similar prescription medications, but there are also alternative approaches to ED treatment we’ll discuss briefly, ranging from medical devices to talk therapy.

Other prescription ED medications

If you’re new to ED medications, you’d likely be better off trying a monotherapy before taking something like Ro Sparks. Monotherapies have shown tremendous efficacy in men with ED, and a single drug should pose less of a side effect risk than two drugs would. Here’s a quick look at the top ED medications, along with some of their benefits and drawbacks.

Sildenafil

This is one of the two drugs in Ro Sparks, and it’s the generic form of Viagra. You take sildenafil around an hour before you anticipate having sex, and it should last for around 6-8 hours. It’s available as a tablet, chewable, or lozenge from different companies, with the tablets from Strut Health being among the best-priced and the chewables from BlueChew being among the most convenient. Sildenafil doesn’t last as long as tadalafil, but some men prefer something that’s out of their systems when they don’t need it anymore.

Tadalafil

This is the other drug in Ro Sparks, and it’s the generic form of Cialis. It can last up to 36 hours after you take it, adding a layer of convenience that sildenafil can’t match. Tadalafil is also available as a daily medication at a lower dose than the on-demand version. Like sildenafil, it’s available in various forms, including as a daily gummy from Ro.

Vardenafil

Vardenafil is more similar to sildenafil than it is to tadalafil. It has about the same duration of action, but it’s a little better at specifically targeting PDE5 without collaterally affecting other PDE enzyme groups. As a result, vardenafil usually has lower side effects, but it’s often more expensive than either sildenafil or tadalafil.

Avanafil

Avanafil has the lowest side effect risk of all the drugs similar to sildenafil, but it’s only available in its branded form (Stendra) at this time, as the patent on the drug is still active. You can get Stendra from Hims, but most other telehealth providers don’t stock it.

Other ED medications from Ro

Sparks is one of Ro’s most recent ED medication offerings. The company has offered traditional ED meds for years, and it’s recently begun expanding that catalog. Here’s a look at some of the alternatives you can choose through Ro, with a little commentary about whether it’s the best place to get them.

Sildenafil and brand-name Viagra

Ro sells both sildenafil and brand-name Viagra in 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg doses. However, its cost per dose for generics is higher compared to competitors like BlueChew and Strut Health, the former of which delivers its meds as convenient chewables. And brand-name Viagra is prohibitively expensive from Ro and just about every other provider where we’ve seen it offered.

Tadalafil (on-demand and daily) and brand-name Cialis

Ro offers on-demand and daily tadalafil, but its Cialis is only available in on-demand doses and quantities (and for a similarly high price as brand-name Viagra). These are all available as traditional tablets, but Ro recently added a daily tadalafil gummy to its lineup. As is the case with sildenafil, several providers offer better prices on tadalafil, including Hims and BlueChew.

Mental health care

Some research suggests that up to 40% of ED cases are psychogenic, meaning they originate from a psychological source and not a physical one. In some of these cases, PDE5 inhibitors can still work, and they could offer a bridge for men seeking psychological treatment, allowing them to perform sexually while they work out whatever they need to in order to function without medical assistance.

There are also prescription approaches to anxiety and depression available, as both issues can contribute to or even cause ED.

Access to talk therapy and psychiatry has never been easier, thanks to a revolution in telehealth services that got a big boost in the last few years. Now, through companies like BetterHelp, Talkspace, and Cerebral, men can seek cognitive behavioral therapy, prescription medication, and more without leaving home. And pricing is such that many men without insurance can also get the help they need.

Testosterone treatment

ED can be symptomatic of low testosterone. If you also find yourself with low libido, low energy, excess body fat, or moodiness, your testosterone levels might be low. You can take convenient at-home tests to determine if you have low testosterone, in which case you can treat it with everything from testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) to prescription pills and even nutritional supplements.

TRT is the most extreme of these approaches, as it often involves injecting yourself with testosterone cypionate or a similar analog. Prescription medications like clomiphene or enclomiphene may prove superior for many men, allowing them to avoid the injections and the sometimes wild swings in testosterone levels that come with them.

If you find your T levels are low, you can also reach for nutritional supplements like Innerbody Testosterone Support, a product we created to provide a better set of ingredients, at clinically relevant doses, than we could find anywhere on the market.

Ro also makes a testosterone supplement with a similar name (Roman Testosterone Support), which we recommend to men on tight budgets who are okay with slightly fewer ingredients and slightly smaller doses than some of what you’ll find in the Innerbody alternative. You can learn more about these and other competing products in our complete guide to testosterone boosters.

Shockwave treatment

Shockwave, or acoustic wave, treatment is relatively new to the ED space, at least for most men. To be abundantly clear, it is not electroshock for the penis. There’s no electrical current involved.

Shockwave treatment uses a powerful motor to deliver targeted shockwaves to tissue. Different frequencies of shockwave will penetrate to specific depths, with treatments targeting ED designed to reach the corpus cavernosum, where they can stimulate and improve blood flow. In most cases, these treatments are performed in a clinic under the care of a trained urologist, but some companies have begun producing at-home devices you can use to administer shockwaves yourself.

Most of the at-home shockwave devices we’ve seen are either too weak to be effective, too dangerous to recommend, or both. The Phoenix Shockwave device stands out among them as a viable option if you’re wary of attending in-person sessions with a urologist or your insurance won’t cover the expense.
