Hi there.
Vb forte is a multivitamin used as an adjunct in pts with hair loss.
No it should not have any effect on your libido or erection!
There are some hair loss medications like finasteride tabs that have been associated with this problem but not VB forte.
Your problem may be physiological or psychological at your age especially as you report a good erection earlier.
Please go see a good counsellor or psychologist who will help you decide if there is some sort of urology pathology or just stress that is the reason for your ED (erectile dysfunction)!
Cheers & do hope this answers' your query & you soon have good hair growth & sexual appetitie!
