When a person reaches the age of fifty, he or she is at the suggested consideration by humans beings to beelderly. However, that is an opinion that may be disagreed upon by people of that age. Some may say that old age begins when someone reaches sixty or sixty-five. Nonetheless, over the age of fifty does not mean older people can’t be healthy. Healthy older lifestyles still involve physical activity. That physical activity includes playing tennis, basketball, racquetball, golfing, and having sexual relations. Out of all this physical activity, the one that stands out for the elderly is sexual relations.
Just because people get old does not mean that they have to stop their physical activity. Staying healthy along the way towards what some call “making it over the hill†is the key. Even more, staying healthy means living longer. Yet, in some instances, getting old brings diseases that affect the elderly such as heart disease, respiratory disease, arthritis, and Erectile Dysfunction (ED). This ED is troublesome that causes frustration from both the male and the female, and it can produce psychological issues.
Some doctors will prescribe a medication to help the male enhance his ability to perform. The man is happy as a lark, and sometimes forget that the medication can cause a drop in their blood pressure. The medication, when mixed with a heart pill called nitroglycerin, can cause a dramatic decrease in blood pressure to the point of endangering the life of that man or woman.
When nitroglycerin is prescribed to a patient, he or she may be suffering from angina pectoris which produces discomfort in the chest with radiation to the arms, neck, or back. The cause is from inadequate blood to the heart, most likely the ventricles. Yet, the ventricles are at the bottom of the heart. There are two of them, one on the left and one on the right. The left ventricle is thicker because it does more work. So, when the ventricles or other parts of the heart lacks sufficient blood supply, a signal is sent to the nerves. The nerves respond by letting the victim know by causing pain, or even shortness of breath.
The victims’ doctor will prescribe nitroglycerin in various dosages, and the doctor will decide which dosage is best. The nitroglycerin produces vasodilation (dilation) of the coronary arteries which allows blood flow to those areas of the heart that are screaming for oxygenated blood. With ED medication in various dosages, blood is rushed to the male sex organ, while nitroglycerin dilates the arteries. This combination drops the blood pressure to the point that turns out to be life-threatening. Your doctor will not prescribe both medications for you to take at the same time and will advise against taking ED medication with nitroglycerin. Usually, your doctor will ask you to wait (at the most) seventy-two hours after taking nitroglycerin.
There are other pills for ED that are available from a store, gas station, or liquor store. You must understand that the same effects can occur, and often these pills cause a severe headache and muscle aches in the lower back. Always check with your doctor before taking any other pill or medication when taking nitroglycerin. To ignore that may be disastrous.
With old age comes increased risk with activity and taking medication. Therefore, both family members must learn Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). The class may take up to four hours, but it is completely worth it. Those family members will understand the symptoms of a heart attack and take the most appropriate action before cardiac arrest occurs. Also, the Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) should be handy because the combination of CPR and the use of an AED has the best chance of survival where the family member walks out of the hospital and live a normal life.
Finally, ED medication is taken by females as well. The exact effect on the body for sexual enhancement is not clear. However, if taken with nitroglycerin, the same effect that occurs on men by lowering the blood pressure to dangerous levels can happen. Even more, with the combination of CPR and the AED, one would want to get their neighbors to learn the skill. The results of saving a life have the potential of being remarkable, and the feeling is amazing. All questions about heart disease and taking medication goes to your doctor. Please do not experiment with your life, and since we never want to worst to happen, being prepared is the key.
