Brief Answer:
ED is drug related in your case.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,

Welcome to healthcare magic,

I understand your query and concern.

Erectile dysfunction in your case is multi factorial.

Both the drugs mentioned are known to cause erectile dysfunction.

Even Age and alcohol also play a role.

The risk benefit ratio of these drugs is less than 1,hence it doesn't warrant drug cessation.

Post your further queries if any,

Thank you.
