The Los Angeles Times featured research by SPPD Professor Dana Goldman which found that men over 40 who use erectile dysfunction treatments are two to three times more likely to pick up a sexually transmitted disease than their counterparts who don't take such drugs. The most common diseases found were HIV/AIDS and chlamydia, a Xinhua News Agency article stated. The fault lies not with the drugs but rather the high-risk behaviors of the men who request them, the researchers noted. The study was also covered by CBS News, CNN, Time, Forbes, Bloomberg Businessweek.
