药物和烟酒等刺激物
各种各样的合法和不合规定的药物或刺激物可能影响人体的性反应。在某些病例，某些药物或刺激物可能改善性反应，但是，大多数具有消极的效应，尤其使用时间过长时，消极作用更甚。典型的例子是酒精，它起初可能具有受欢迎的放松作用，但是，然后迅速导致损害作用。正如在莎士比亚的悲剧“麦克白(Macbeth)”里的守门人所准确地评说的那样“饮酒激发性欲，但是会夺去性行为过程的乐趣”。以下图表概述了大多数常用药物对性反应的作用。不过，请您注意：在任何具体的病例中，这些常用的刺激物或药物的作用极大地依当事者潜在的疾病或由特殊的药物和使用的剂量治疗所带来的问题而定。

Medication and Drugs
A variety of legal and illegal drugs can affect the human sexual response. Some may improve the response in some cases, but most have a negative effect, especially when used over longer periods of time. The classic example is alcohol which may have a welcome relaxing effect at first, but then quickly leads to impairment. As the porter in Shakespeare's "Macbeth" accurately observes: "Drinking provokes the desire, but takes away the performance." The following chart summarizes the effects of the most common drugs or medications on the sexual response. Please, note, however: In any concrete case, very much depends the underlying disease or problem being treated by a particular drug and on the dose being taken.
