What To Do When Medications Worsen ED
If you believe that any of the medications you are taking, either over the counter or the prescription medications your family physician has prescribed for you, is causing erectile dysfunction (ED), it is important not to stop the use of your medicines until you have spoken with your doctor first. Once a specific medicine has been determined as the culprit for causing the symptoms of ED that you are experiencing, it is likely that your physician will suggest either taking a lower dosage of the prescription, or he may also suggest that you try a different prescription that is less likely to cause this often frustrating and embarrassing condition. If it is impossible for you to lower the dosage that you are taking, or switch to another type of prescription, then another possible option your doctor may speak to you about, is to start a method of treatment for erectile dysfunction. If you are a user of alcohol or tobacco products, your physician will more than likely discuss with you the effect that these substances can have on ED, and the importance of discontinuing their use. Recreational drugs are also widely known to cause numerous men to suffer from erectile dysfunction.
