Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Metoprolol can cause erection problem. You need to discuss this with your Doctor because this is important for your health as well. You need to relax. Avoid worrying much. Get refreshing sleep 6-8 hours a day. Do Yoga for stress relief. Consult your Doctor about the side effects of the medicines on erection and how to tackle them.
