Men's Sexual Health: Medications and Supplements

Medications and Supplements Introduction:
Both prescribed and 'over-the-counter' medications are used widely all over the world for ailments ranging from colds to back pain to post-surgical pain. These medications, in the USA approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), can be a blessing as well as a curse. Although effective at reducing pain or treating other symptoms, many medications are known to cause at least occasional problems with sexual desire and function. It is important to be aware of this and to ask questions about sexual side effects before taking any kind of medication. Also natural herbs and dietary supplements can have powerful side effects.
