Detailed Answer:
Hello,

unfortunately there is no answer to your question. Virectin contains a lot of supplements and there are no data from proper studies to make sure it won't have an effect on blood thinners particularly if you use warfarin or similar drugs. For the rest of blood thinners (like rivaroxaban for example) the possibility of an interaction is much lower. Studies are lacking for such drugs too but these drugs are not as 'sensitive' to interactions as warfarin.

Perhaps you should talk to a urologist first to assess whether you have the ability to have erections or not. If you have erections during the night or when waking up then the erection apparatus is intact. If not then it's possible that you can't have an erection. The urologist can tell you if it works or not.

I hope you find my comments helpful!
Please contact me again, if you'd like any clarification or further information.

Kind Regards!
