In this dynamic, short-format session delivered by four GP and specialist experts, we’ll discuss the roadblocks at various levels—from federal and state policies and general practice systems to patient hesitancy—while exploring practical strategies that may help us as GPs, improve adult immunisation uptake.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common condition affecting ~20% of Australian men aged andgt;40 years.Despite having significant impacts on quality of life, ED often goes undetected and undertreated.Many men may feel reluctant to bring ED up themselves, so by initiating the conversation, healthcare professionals can help normalise the discussion and encourage men to seek treatment – ensuring that ED and any underlying health conditions, such as cardiovascular (CV) disease, are promptly addressed. PDE5 inhibitors remain the first-line therapy for ED and have been available for over 25 years. They have a well-established safety profile, and growing evidence supports their CV safety, thus dispelling the myth that these drugs are associated with negative CV outcomes.
