Hi doctor, I am a doctor practicing in a rural area and aged 55 years. I am having high blood pressure for last seven years. My blood pressure was 180/100 mmHg before treatment and now I am on Telmisartan H 40 mg once daily. My BP fluctuates between 128 and 135 systolic to 85 and 90 diastolic. I do not have any symptoms of hypertension either before or after starting treatment. My only concern now is that I am having ED. Is it due the drugs I am using or BP itself or just age factor? I have tried Sildenafil, but no effect. Can you suggest me any solution either by changing the antihypertensive drug that is less likely to cause ED or any other medication? Or do you advise me to accept the situation? I can understand and follow your advice. Thank you.
