Tips on Choosing Medications: Deciding what works for You

Choosing erectile dysfunction treatment

Specialists agree that there are four main rules that help choosing the right ED medication. And though some doctors say that all erection pills work pretty much the same, not all of them are equally effective for all men. Here what you should pay attention to:

  1. ingredients: they should be natural ones. Some medications include chemicals, but they are checked and tested. Look for medications that contain no preservatives and additives. We suggest paying attention to clinically tested generics that are able to increase blood flow and boost both male’s endurance and stamina;
  2. effectiveness: while comparing different offers (Viagra, Levitra, Cialis or Kamagra) pay attention to their effectiveness. Some pills provide first results within 15 minutes after intake; others need more time (up to an hour). While Cialis, for example, remains in the body for up to 36 hours, Viagra lasts for 4-5 hours only. The choice should depend on what you need – a weekend pill or the one that is suitable for a night;
  3. safety: all ED drugs come with adverse reactions and severe side effects. They can be minimized, yet it greatly depends on what one eats and drinks, what pills he takes and whether there’s a history of severe medical conditions;
  4. warnings and precautions: usually such pills aren’t allowed to combine with other medications and certain foods. Before choosing the erection medication, please consult your doctor concerning the pills you are on and their possible combination with impotence drugs.

We also suggest consulting a healthcare professional to learn what ED medication works for you. OR you can consult and online specialist and learn more.

Choosing pain relievers

There are many different things to be considered, while choosing a pain reliever. These drugs can be either saviors or killers and your choice determines which one you are about to take. Pay attention to:

  1. types: there are two main types of these drugs: NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) and acetaminophen. The both help to reduce fever and relieve pain;
  2. health risks: it is essential to find out what possible side effects the medication can cause. It is essential to read the label before taking any pill or mixture;
  3. age: adults and kids should take different medications. Things that are helpful in one case are dangerous in another one. Sick kids are allowed to take acetaminophen and ibuprofen only if the dosage is correct. So, make sure the dosage is discussed with your physician;
  4. sensitive stomach: it’s known that NSAUDs are tough on the gut. A single pill works irritating the stomach lining, triggers bleeding and ulcers. This is why the consumed dose must be as low as possible;
  5. blood pressure: all pain relievers affect blood pressure. They increase it even in those patients, who have never faced the condition before;
  6. heart: if you are experiencing heart problems, a pain reliever is called a double-edged sword that hurts it even more. It’s not recommended to take these medications for a durable treatment course. And the doses must be limited, otherwise the medication interferes with the blood-thinning effects of heart medications. Besides, pain relievers can be dangerous for people with cirrhosis and kidney disease, too;
  7. drinks: the combination of pills and alcohol can lead to lethal outcome, especially if you are on pain relievers. Read the label and learn the warning about consuming alcohol while being on the medication;
  8. drug interaction: many drugs never play well with each other. Their mix leads to severe side effects and hospitalization. NSAIDs are able to increase the bleeding risks, for example. Even combination with herbal remedies and vitamins is risky.

Whatever pain you are experiencing, keep in mind that a pain reliever can sometimes hurt more than treat. This is why you are to take only its prescribed dose.

Choosing antibiotics

Before deciding what CHCM antibiotic to order you have to consider many different health-related factors. And here are basic ones:

  1. causes of infections and your immune system (whether it’s strong or weak);
  2. history of serious health conditions and their endurance;
  3. whether the flora is normal;
  4. contraindications, cautions and warnings;
  5. drug, food and drink interaction.

Search for an empirical antibiotic guidelines. They are established by answering questions that help understand what antibiotics one really needs and which ones can be dangerous.

Choosing antidepressants

All antidepressants are different and the ways they work in are different too. Choosing the right one can become a real test and not everyone passes it. So, before picking and ordering CHCM antidepressants consider:

  1. your symptoms: usually depression symptoms vary greatly. Some pills relieve them while others aggravate;
  2. side effects: all antidepressants cause side effects. Yet they can be either minor or severe. Usually the dosage defines which ones you are about to experience. Dry mouth, sexual side effects or weight gain are serious ones that make the treatment course difficult. Read about adverse reactions before buying;
  3. interaction: how does the medication interact with other drugs? The greater part of them don’t interact at all, while others lead to dangerous reactions;
  4. your health: there are certain health conditions that can get worse because of antidepressants. Their list includes: heart disease, headaches and migraines, mental health conditions, hyperactivity disorder, attention deficit, etc.

Antidepressants are not always safe while taken during pregnancy or breast feeding. Possible side effects can be rather mild, if the right dosage is prescribed. If you are pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant, please contact your doctor to discuss possible ways of depression management.

Choosing high blood pressure medications

The choice usually depends on the stage. Today there are different types of medications for both stages: diuretics, calcium channel blockers, beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, etc. Each of them is characterized by a quite different action method. While diuretics help get rid of excess water, beta-blockers lower the heart rate. You can get  more information about diuretics here.

If you are suffering from diabetes, you should better not take diuretics as they increase the sugar levels in blood (In case you have diabetes and want to take beta-blockers, you should read this article - http://www.healthline.com/health/diabetes/beta-blockers-what-you-need-to-know#1) If you have angina, beta blockers and calcium channel blockers will give better results.

All the above mentioned recommendations are general. You can rely on them as an additional or alternative source of information. Your health care provider is the first source. He’ll be able to give you recommendations and prescription after checkup and studying your medical history. One more thing we want you to keep in mind is that any medication is two-sided: it is able to improve health or make things worse. Your choice will specify the way you’ll go.
