Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My Cardiologist has advised me to take following medications one tab daily - Amlopres AT 25 (Morning), Ecosprin 150 (Afternoon) and Rozavel 5 (Night). Using above since last 10 years. Does these medications causes ED ? I cannot tolerate Vigara, and alternate medications for ED. I am 66.
Hello Thanks for your query .Based on the facts and medicines that you have been prescribed I would state that yo have hypertension with high cholesterol .
Now you are facing problem of Erectile Dysfunction . At the outset I would state that the problem of ED is not due to side effects of these drugs but primarily is due to following two reasons. 1)Long standing hypertension 2) As the age advances there is generalized atherosclerosis of the vessels which causes narrowing of penile artery too which supplies arterial blood to erectile tissue in penis and this reduced blood flow to erectile tissue of penis is the cause for ED after the age of 65 years .
You need to consult Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to establish cause of your Ed 1) Serum Testosterone 2) Color Doppler ultrasound scan of the penis .
If you can not tolerate Viagra or other similar drugs You can take Intra Cavernosal injection of Alprostatdil (Caverjet).This will definately help you to get good hard erection to have enjoyable sex .
