   sexual drive and atenolol (High & Low Blood Pressure board)

8th December 2005
Not all men on Beta-Blockers have ED. Anyway, I was not as good as now when I was on Beta-Blockers :). They say that ARBs improve sexual ability in men having ED and I have tried both Cozaar and Atacand and in fact I found that they are not better than Beta-Blockers but many men said that thier sexual ability improved on ARBs. I started Cardizim SR 90mg, which is a CCB, 2 days ago and today I feel that they are good for sex.

You know everyone is different and you will hear some guys say that CCBs and ARBs cause ED and others say NO they don't and the same for beta-blockers. For me I found that Cardizim SR is the best :). Hope that you will find your righ Med soon
Thanks,

From firsthand experience I know that beta blockers defifntely cause ED. THiazides PROBABLY do and one ARB, Cozaar might. At the very least the ARB is of no benefit in this regard.
Also the literature is replete with references that hypertension ALONE can cause ED.

I really don't know about the effects effects of CCB's.

The literature says that a loop diuretic, furosemide has a very low incidence of ED.

Why not do a trial of an ACE inhibitor and see for yourself whether or not it affects you. If it doesn't cause coughing and is OK with your plumbing, then you've got a good BP medication.

But it's all trial and error with these farschmeldt drugs! :wave:
