Does amlodipine affect sexual function?

It is well tolerated, and possible adverse effects include reflex tachycardia, facial flushing, bilateral lower limb edema, constipation, etc. It has little effect on sexual function. Patients with hypertension are prone to sexual dysfunction if their long-term blood pressure is not well controlled. In order to avoid the impact on sexual function, blood pressure should be strictly controlled within the appropriate range, and other high-risk factors that cause cardiovascular diseases, such as high blood sugar, high blood fat, smoking, obesity, urine protein, and unhealthy lifestyle, should be treated at the same time.
