Normal erectile function depends on : (1) normal blood supply to the genitalia

The fact that you use high blood pressure medication may means that there is a blood supply issue. High blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking can all affect the blood supply.
There are also some high blood pressure medications that could affect erectile function.
Cialis and viagra work by improving blood supply to the area by causing the blood vessels to relax.

If the dose of viagra you used was not effective and it is not at the highest dose for you, then it is possible that an increase may help. The maximum dose is 100mg.
