Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My husband is on Cumaden for Afib. He is very upset that he cannot keep an erection and will not discuss it with his doctor. After he achieves proper level of Cumaden, they plan to shock his heart one month later. Can anything be done? Can he do anything about it? Is this a medication he may have to be on the rest of his life?
Warfarin, sold under the brand name Coumadin among others, is a medication that is used as an anticoagulant. This drug is said to cause Ed because of its anticoagulant properties. Talk to your doctor regarding this.
