I just looked up the effects and side effects and to be honest, although there are many, what you complain of is not one of them. It can effect you psychologically though and be a cause of anxiety and insomnia and other related states of mind and that could, be the factor in your loss of libido but it seems a pretty tenuous link at best.
Sorry! Maybe you just can't get it up anymore?

No that is not a side effect of the inflammatory medication at all:am on them over 35 years:never caused me any problem in that area.
Must be something else.

Eating lots of leafy greens, whole grains, oysters, watermelon, and blueberries (most any fruit will work, really) will help you give your body all that it needs to improve the quality of your erections, while cutting out processed foods, cigarettes and alcohol will provide further benefits.

Add in a healthy dose of exercise at least three times per week, and you’re well on your way to better sexual health!

I think it would be just fine,I was on a anti inflammatory and use to take Migraine Excedrin and I was just fine.

It shouldnt have that effect. However, there you are as living proof.
Long term that stuff thins your blood and it aint that good for your blood pressure either. I have arthritis and was using nsaids for a while... didn't notice a lower libido at the time.

Any kind of chemical that stops an inflammation can have some kind of penis effect
