Do BP Medications Or PAN Cause Impotency?
My husband was diagnosed with PAN in June of 07. He almost died but after intense medication, azathioprine and etc. and long recovery he is now in remission and doing well. He is 69 and very healthy before this. He is now impotent and we are wondering if this will ever improve. He is still on 3 different blood pressure meds, has about 30% of his kidney function but again they are doing well. Is the impotence caused by the BP meds or the PAN or does anyone know? thanks. lavella

Ya BP medicines could be a reason for decreased libido and impotence. Also chronic kidney disease can be a cause for decreased libido.
