Is There Interaction Between Alfuzosin And Temsunol D?

Question: I am presently taking Alfuzosin 10mg for BPH relief. I had been taken Temsunol D, but it gave me dry ejaculations, and poor sexual drive.
I am also taking Cialis 20 a few hours before sex (once per week) for an ED problem.
Question......I have read that alpha blockers like Alfuzosin or Temsunol could have bad interaction with erectile dysfunction-ED drugs such as sildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil. Should I be worried about that?
Is it safe for me to take an ED drug once per week if I am on an alpha blocker for my BPH problem?
I am also on Benicar 20 for high blood pressure.

Brief Answer:
yes possible interaction but you can take
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
You are right that there are drug interactions.
With alfuzosin all 5-PDE inhibitor drugs (sildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil)have significant drug interactions. Tadalafil is relatively safer and you should keep distance of at least 4 hours between these two drugs intake.
With temsunol less drug interaction is there. It can cause vaso dilatation and hypo-tension. You can take either 5-pde inhibitor group of drug with 6 hours gap without any problem.
Benicar has no drug interactions with these drugs.
Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.

Brief Answer:
Yes you got it right
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for follow up. Yes you can take after 14 hours without any problem. Also keep in mind that you are going to take alfuzosin next day 2 pm so distance will be 9 hours. Half life of cialis is 2 hours so there will be no issue. Keep distance of at least 4 hours.
Take care.
