Using erectile dysfunction (ED) medications recreationally can be extraordinarily dangerous, due to potential unknown or unexpected drug and substance interactions.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Medications like Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra are effective treatments for men with erectile dysfunction. Currently, the medication is controlled by prescriptions. If a doctor diagnoses you with ED, you\u2019ll likely get a prescription for one of five FDA approved medications that are on the market.<\/p>\n

But there are some men – mostly young men – who skip the doctor\u2019s visit and buy supplements that claim to have Cialis-like power, all in an effort to boost their already healthy sex life. Those in the medical community are concerned about this rising trend.<\/p>\n

Study Shows Men Are Taking ED Med Recreationally<\/h3>\n

Despite pharmaceutical companies warning men about the dangers of taking these less-than-regulated supplements, thousands of men still use them.<\/p>\n

A recent Archives of Sexual Behavior study found that 74% of young men who\u2019d ever taken an erectile dysfunction medication had done so recreationally.\u00a0\u201cMen, especially young men, think, \u2018Well, my sexual function is good, but if I had a little extra pill, it would be great,\u2019\u201d Culley Carson III, M.D., a distinguished professor of urology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill tells Men\u2019s Fitness<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Problem with Recreational ED Meds<\/h3>\n

If men start taking ED medications when they\u2019re healthy, eventually they\u2019ll equate quality sex with a pill and become dependent on it.<\/p>\n

Plus, medications like Cialis can interact with other prescription medications like Nitrates. When combined, these medications can cause an unhealthy drop in blood pressure. Drinking excessively while taking prescription ED medications like Cialis can also result in dangerously low blood pressure.<\/p>\n

If you are suffering with symptoms of erectile dysfunction \u2013 no matter what your age – you should see your doctor. If you\u2019re in need of a prescription like Cialis, one will be given to you after an exam.<\/p>\n
