Can Taking Ezetrol Cause Joint Pain, Memory Problem Or Erectile Dysfunction?
Question: can taking ezetrol joint or back pain, memory or cognative problems or "ED"? Thankyou. Martin
Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
Ezetrol ( ezetimibe) is not known to be associated with any problems with cognition or erectile dysfunction. It can be associated with joint and muscle pain, so if this is occurring at a greater intensity or frequency prior to use of the medication, you may want to consult your doctor to determine if the medication if a causative factor.
There are blood tests that can be done to see if there are any muscular issues.
It can also be associated with other side effects such as fatigue,headache and abdominal discomfort.
Normal erectile function requires an integration of hormonal, neurological, vascular and psychological factors. Vascular factors mean conditions that can affect the blood supply to the penis and therefore affect function- this would include high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking , history of heart disease .
The main treatment of ED is the use of medications such as viagra, cialis or levitra, though there are other options available.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
