Colchicine, spironolactone, and cimetidine have all been shown to have negative effects on sperm production. Colchicine has been linked to decreased sperm count and motility, while spironolactone and cimetidine can decrease testosterone levels and cause erectile dysfunction, both of which can contribute to oligospermia. Acetaminophen and metoprolol are not known to have negative effects on sperm production.
