I am male 60yo have afib.I take warfarin and have been told painkillers mess with INR.
i have been having some memory loss since my crash but i dont know if it is from medication cos i was only taking warfarin. at least that's all i remember taking.
I have a medicine induced erectile dysfunction for a few years. I sometimes take viagra or cialis, but it doesn't work very well so I am looking for other things. I'd like to try vitaros, but I have a curved penis, which is a contraindication for alprostadil treatement. So my question is : is curvature an absolute contraindication, and can it sometimed be prescribed to men who have a curved penis ? My penis has always been curved in erection.
Yeah,
There's Pink Viagra and it's for the treatment of FSAD (female sexual arousal disorder).
You might want to ask your doctor about it.
I have been using Warfarin for about 15 years and take a "senior" multivitamin that includes maintenance levels of zinc.
Anytime you are considering taking high levels (much greater than the "daily minimums) it is best to check with your doctor.
You may be a response from a local pharmacist and I'm sure (didn't check) a web search will turn up many opinions.
I couldnt hold an erection for a while without Viagra but only recently got to test the viagra out with a woman, i could hold the erection for an hour or so but could not ejaculate. Admitedly i was drunk at the time but this has been a problem for me ever since i lost my virginity at 16.
I can ejaculate/orgasm when masterbating and hold erections then without viagra but cannot during intercourse.
Id say i am fairly fit and work out 3-4 times a week.
Hi there!
Though Viagra has no specific side effects pertaining to MS, it is only advised to use the medication if advised by a medical doctor and only under the prescribed doses. Unnecessary self-medication is more harmful than useful in most cases and is best avoided.
Hope the information is helpful.
Take care!
Instructions for Viagra, Cialis, etc. say not to take w/ BP meds. I'm thinking there are a cpl possibilities. Diovan (Valsartan) is available in different doses (20 mg, 40 mg, etc.), so maybe you could take a lower dose on the day you'll be using Viagra. Or possibly just skip your usual dose that day, then resume the next. However, your Dr. may not agree. I think the best strategy is to ask your Dr. about using these 2 drugs at the same time.
Why would I stay on Pradaxa when I am not in A-Fib? 2nd Question. Is Coumadin safer than Pradaxa?
t see how they could treat with warfarin under those circumstances. Anyone taking warfarin must be monitored routinely with a PT to check clotting factor. Warfarin can be some nasty stuff but if reduces fibrosis what the heck. They've thrown every other drug at us and we still keep bouncing back. Thanks for the info.
To me, it would seem embarrassing. Am I being naive? or could it have anything to do with his bad back? I don't feel comfortable questioning him about this as I would have to fess up counting his pills. I don't have any male family or friends that I can ask so I'm hoping a man or even a massage therapist might be able to offer an explanation to me. Our sex life has dwindled through the years but we still have sex about 2-3 times a month. Thank you.
Sometimes there is bleeding at the cite of cath penetration, and with anti-platelet medication there can be excessive bleeding....also there is a small risk of a puncture with a cath. I didn't have any problems with bleeding, etc. but after reading thousands of posts on the subject many patients experience problems.
I recently had a colonoscopy and was told to stop anti-platelet medication 6 days prior to procedure and there is a risk of excessive bleeding if there were polyps...none found.
If you have an ED (rerectile disfunction) problem then see a Dr. Viagra is not something that should be taken without properly being evaluated by a Dr.
I have been on plavix for years with no problem but this warfarin is messing with me big time. I have been dealing with migraines for a couple weeks and after the first dose it seemed to help..even when i got up i felt much better not like my whole circulation was contricted like it normally does...same this morning...but i also had a headache yesterday that felt different that developed..
Now his penis is retracted inward. He has a prescription for viagra but is afraid to take it.
I am sorry you are having so much trouble with warfarin. What are your INR rates? I was placed on warfarin when I was diagnosed with AFib. It was hard for me to maintain therapeutic levels, too. Because I did not want to risk a stroke, I chose to fight and figure out how to make warfarin management work. So I made an appointment with a dietitian associated with with my coumadin clinic. That paid off in many ways. I learned to manage all the foods with vitamin K.
I take warfarin everyday. I had aortic valve replacement in 2001 and had an artificial heart valve installed. The downside to that is I will have to take blood thinners for the rest of my life because of the artificial valve. That is not the case with a tissue valve. It has really not had any affect on me at all. The one thing that I know warfarin affects is Vitamin K. Vitamin K is what causes your blood to clot. Therefore the warfarin cancels out some of the Vit.
