Just wondering if this med causes erectile dysfunction like some other kinds of bp meds do? Just started taking it and was wondering. Updated 9-4 - Well, I tried it out this weekend and everything seemed to work like it's supposed to. Maybe a little slower getting there but I can live with that! Thanks for all your help!!!

But...it's not very common at all. I've been on it for years with no problems whatsoever. It's not even listed as a major problems on the warnings for the drug. Jim R

welp.. I dunno if it is due to the Verap.. or just an end to my "PEAK" but I was havin a fine old time many many times a week!...till I started takin the Verapamil..then it all came to a screetching halt. Although I was less than happy with that side affect.. I actually think hubby was grateful! Shari

I dunno? Does getting an erection every third breath count as a dysfunction?

Already answered the erection issue, however, I have noticed since going to 480 mgs./day that I am more tired during the day, am somewhat short of breath, and am sleeping much more than I was prior to the increase. Has anyone noticed this with verapamil? Jim R

Verap lowers your blood pressure so fatigue is in the equation.

Seemed to have that effect on me. Then I stressed out over the whole thing, quit the drug, continued to be stressed out and that was the start of the downward spirial. I remember when he used to stand proud and watch me shave, now he hangs his head and watches the floor. I think he's protecting me from ground attacks.
