A Dr. Mehmet Oz, MD , Cardiology (Cardiovascular Disease), answered. There are blood pressure medications that do not cause erectile dysfunction (ED). Some older blood pressure medications, especially beta blockers and thiazide diuretics, are the most likely to cause ED as a side effect. Better options include calcium channel blockers, which lower high blood pressure through a different mechanism.
Different blood pressure medications have different side effects. Calcium channel blockers are used to lower blood pressure, and the biggest side effect is having some edema or swelling. There are medications that may affect the kidneys. There are medications that slow the heart rate down and may make you a little bit tired or fatigued. However, without medication, the biggest side effect of hypertension is a stroke. Other negative effects of high blood pressure include heart failure, heart attack and kidney failure.
