Asthma Drug Effect To Erection + or - ?
I have very slight asthma and use medicine only before/during working out. My medicine is salbutamol. It is b2 agonist. I am little confused because it is said to cause vasodilation and b2 agonist produces erection in cats. B2 antagonism hinder erection so it is logical agonism would help erection. But in the other hand salbutamol has been used succesfully to deal priapism. Does anyone know will salbutamol increase or decrease EQ? I guess I will just try it out.

Finally, the stimulation by catecholamines of b-adrenergic receptors causes relaxation of arterial and trabecular smooth muscle. The b2 subtype is probably the most important receptor mediating these effects.11,24 Adrenaline has a high affinity for this receptor, whose stimulation counteracts in part the constrictor effects, mediated by b-adrenergic receptors, of this catecholamine. There is evidence in the vascular system that the expression of b2adrenergic receptors decreases with age; therefore, in the erectile tissue, progressively, the constrictor mechanisms (a-adrenergic) would prevail.”
