Impotence more common in men who pop painkillers<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – Aging men tend to take more painkillers and experience more sexual problems, but does that mean one causes the other?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a new study that took a stab at the question, the link between impotence and pain meds remained even after ruling out age and several other diseases as possible explanations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Researchers found that regular users of drugs like aspirin, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and Celebrex were 38 percent more likely to have erectile dysfunction than men who didn\u2019t take the so-called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory painkillers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acetaminophen is sold as Tylenol in the U.S., and ibuprofen often as Advil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Such drugs are thought to block the hormones that govern men\u2019s erections, which might help explain the new findings, said study author Dr. Joseph Gleason, a urologist with Kaiser Permanente in Los Angeles. The new report appears in the Journal of Urology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, Gleason said his results don\u2019t prove popping painkillers causes impotence. It\u2019s possible that unknown factors may be at play, or that he and his colleagues didn\u2019t succeed in weeding out the influence of other diseases entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, many men take a low dose of aspirin because they\u2019re at higher risk for heart attack, which in turn means their blood vessels aren\u2019t in top shape. And that can affect the penis as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe call the penis a thermometer for vascular disease,\u201d or problems related to the blood vessels, said Dr. Brant Inman, a urologist at Duke University Medical Center in North Carolina, who didn\u2019t work on the new study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of those who took painkillers regularly, 64 percent said they could never get an erection compared to 36 percent of men who didn\u2019t take the drugs often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After accounting for factors like age, weight, high blood pressure and heart disease, the researchers still found a 38-percent higher risk of erectile dysfunction among men on painkillers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, because the study didn\u2019t test painkillers directly, Inman cautioned that men shouldn\u2019t stop using painkillers for fear that it would cut their chances of getting an erection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the authors of the new report is affiliated with Merck, which makes the erectile dysfunction drug Staxyn, and another with GlaxoSmithKline, which makes Levitra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
