If you’re experiencing ED, check the Internet to determine if your medication is a potential cause.

One of the biggest benefits of easy access to Internet browsers is that healthcare consumers are now empowered to search for medical information. Prior to the web, your doctor was the repository for even the simplest medical information. While the information you find on the Internet certainly doesn’t take the place of a physician consult and should never replace contact with a licensed medical professional, you can better educate yourself. This is especially true if the medical condition might cause embarrassment, such as erectile dysfunction (ED) in men.

Ironically, men often experience ED as a side-effect of medications. All medications can cause side effects, including Viagra for ED. But for men experiencing ED, there are steps they can take to initially determine if they’re having a reaction to another medication or if something else might be going on. Here are some steps to take before calling your doctor if you think your medications are causing your ED.

The Internet and ED

Many common medications have ED as a side effect. This can make it easy for men to blame their medications if they’re having erection problems. Keep in mind that infrequent ED can happen as a natural result of aging or lifestyle issues like obesity, too much alcohol, or smoking.

If you’re experiencing ED, Internet browsing cannot replace expert medical opinion. See a doctor.

But common medications can also cause ED. Some medications used to treat depression, blood pressure, allergies, chronic pain, certain inflammatory conditions, heart disease, and seizures all list ED as a side effect. It’s important to note here that while it may be tempting just to turn to Viagra, drugs for ED can also interact with medications you’re already taking. From antihistamines to acid reflux drugs, there are a number of medications on the market that cause ED. One study tracked more than 2,000 men to determine that anti-depressant medications commonly cause ED.

Consider speaking with a Drugs.com physician online or talk with your family doctor to be sure Viagra will work with the medications you’re currently taking.

If you’re experiencing ED, a good checkup is always a good idea. However, the Internet can provide some initial information, particularly if there is some question about whether erection problems are caused by medications, men should take certain steps:

  1. Look up the drug on Drugs.com or rxlist.com to determine if ED is a common side effect.
  2. If so, determine if the drug is still necessary.
  3. Learn about alternatives to the offending drug.
  4. Find out if it’s OK to take a PDE-5 inhibitor along with the drug if there aren’t alternatives.
  5. If PDE-5 drugs are an option, online facilitators like eDrugstore.com are simple, cost-effective providers.

It’s important to keep in mind that ED is very treatable with medications like Viagra. But ED, in addition to cropping up as a medication side-effect, can also be indicative of a more serious health disorder. While the Internet is a good starting tool to help you figure out next steps, nothing can take the place of a clinical consult to help treat your ED.
