He has thus cautioned against the act, saying people should stop using them, “except when exceptionally necessary.”
Ademola, who is also the Medical Director of a fertility centre in Lagos, gave the advice in an interview with the News Agency
of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday.
He said sex enhancement drugs are drugs which enhance erectile function and aphrodisiacs which increase sexual arousal and desire.
He added that the use of such drugs could have both positive and negative implications on human health, stressing that the negative effects, however,
outweighed the benefits.
According to him, sex enhancement drug is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases.
He explained that such drugs could cause hypertension, heart failure and related diseases.
The gynaecologist said “it is not advisable to use sex enhancement drug, except when exceptionally necessary, and must be
under strict medical prescription and supervision.”
According to him, there are many instances where people who used sex enhancement drugs end up losing their lives.
“I have had a situation where two elderly couple took erectile dysfunction drug simultaneously had heart attack and died.
“Also, a young man of about 45 years of age who took overdose of tramadol with the aim of enhancing his sex performance also died in the course of having sexual intercourse.
“If anyone has potency problem, it is advisable that such person seeks medical attention rather than using enhancement drug because it has many underlying side effects.”
The gynaecologist further advised against self-medication, emphasising hospital visit for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Ademola explained that Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is a common medical disorder with increasing prevalence worldwide.
He said “hypertensive, diabetic and aged people are at higher risk, and should completely avoid using it because they might drop dead in the process.
“Some health implications of over-the-counter male enhancement drugs include damage to the urethra, permanent difficulty maintaining an erection, among others.”>>>>CONTINUE FULL READING HERE
