Hi I m 57 and taking Arrow-Simva 80mg Simvastatin daily and Aspirin Ph Eur 100mg daily following a heart attack 6 years ago. I sometimes have difficulty with loss in sexual ability and performance. Could these medications cause this? If not, what could I do to improve my sexual ability/performance? Many thanks, Rob

Hello.Although some people refer erectile dysfunction taking statins (simvastatin, atorvastatin ...), recent studies say it may even improve erectile dysfunction.
Drugs such as vardenafil, tadalafil or sildenafil are used successfully in the treatment of erectile dysfunction.Please consult your doctor for a prescription.
I wish you good health.
