Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
Tonact contains atorvastatin which helps lower blood cholesterol levels.
Observations on taking atorvastatin is as follows
1. Most people taking Tonact for months or years do not report reduced sexual drive or erection problems. If you do not have any problems because of taking tonact for 4 years then most likely you will never have any sex related issues due to taking tonact.
2. Research has shown that tonact can lower testosterone levels but this does not cause any significant sexual problems.
3. Only one research has shown slightly reduced erection in elderly people taking tonact and this has not been confirmed. The number of people in which this research was done is small and they might have had other problems causing sexual problems.
4. Tonact can cause muscle pain and weakness but will not cause joint pain. The muscle pain happens in first year of treatment and if you do not have muscle pains then there is no need to worry.
5. It has been proven that tonact promotes a good erection in people taking viagra for erection problems. Therefore tonact is less likely to cause any erection problems directly.
Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.
Regards,
Dr.Vivek
