In real-world use, men sometimes find they like one pill better than another for various reasons, says urology professor Ajay Nehra of Rush University Medical Center in Chicago…Nehra is among experts who are developing ED prevention guidelines based on studies showing links with risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including smoking, obesity, lack of exercise and poor diets. Those links are so strong that doctors now know that a man in his 40s who arrives in a doctor's office with ED is at high risk for an eventual heart attack and/or stroke, says Stephen Kopecky, a cardiologist at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., and president of the American Society for Preventive Cardiology.
