Aim of the study was to assess effect of monotherapy with nebivolol, bisoprolol, carvedilol for 2 months on sexual function in men with arterial hypertension (AH). Men with 1-2 degree of AH (n=75, age 35-55 years, mean age 48+/-3,5 years) received monotherapy with these drugs for 2 months. Registration of parameters of heart rate variability (HRV), Dopplerography of penile arteries, and the Vasilchenko questionnaire were implemented at the end of 4 months of placebo period and after 2 months of therapy with a study drug. Therapy with bisoprolol, carvedilol, and nebivolol was associated with significant elevation of parasympathetic part of vegetative nervous system tone, improvement of systolic blood flow in cavernous and dorsal arteries. Analysis of data obtained by Vasilchenko questionnaire demonstrated improvement of psychic and erectile components of sexual function. Thus bisoprolol, carvedilol, and nebivolol did not worsen sexual function of men with AH, improved spectral parameters of HRV and vascular blood flow in arteries of cavernous bodies.
