instruction: hello doctor I am a 54 year old hypertension patient and in control with medicines ramipril 10 my natrilix 5 suspense release and rosuvastatin 10 my ramipril was causing dry cough and was managing until recently but now cough becomes very sensitive due to current couid 19 situation and so visited another clinic for an opinion and the doctor changed to connor 5mg and amaasc my at least for three months until the current situation improves as constant cough due to ramipril concerns me and others as well doctor asked to reduce the dose of rosuvastatin or to take on alternate days my question are the prescribed medicines safe I read connor does affect the sexual drive to some extent although with my age not so active but with ramipril there was no issue on this ground even otherwise will the combination prescribe now benefit
output: hi I read and understand that your concern is about the side effects of the newly prescribed drugs reduction of sexual drive is one of the side effects of beta blocker group of drugs connor contains bisoprolol which is a cardioselective beta blocker the systemic side effects of cardioselective beta blockers are less compared to the general beta blockers so the effect of connor on the sexual drive would not be that significant to affect your usual life and the combination prescribed is safe to take there are no significant drug interactions between these group of drugs
