i suspect the lack of sexual drive and full hard erection is due to atenolol--same class/family of drugs as toprol w/c is a beta blocker. i was also on toprol for a brief period but when it started to cause anxiety, nightmares, depression, and lack of libido...i told my doc and was switched to something better. if one doc doesn't care or listen to your symptoms, it's time to find another one that does...so that's good you're going to a different doctor. a good physician will work with you and try other hbp medications that will control the bp and have the least bothersome or damaging effect.
