As a side effect to treating a cough or allergy, antihistamines can affect hormones, the central nervous system, or blood circulation, resulting in erectile dysfunction. Brand names of antihistamines that may cause erectile dysfunction include Dramamine, Benadryl, Vistaril, Antivert, and Phenergan.1
