Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

Most of the medicines except anti-hypertensive’s belonging to the group called Beta blockers are quite safe in term of sexual potency.

ACEI (angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor), ARBs (angiotensin receptor blockers) for which class diavon belongs, CCBs (calcium channel blockers) are all safe.

Hope I have answered your query. Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
