Depression. Medication Causing Problems With Sexual Life. Suggestions?
I suffer from depression. The Meds for depression now kill my sex life , as I cannot finish, so why bother. What meds were used for depression , before these new meds were made ie, zoloft.... now you want money... always about money.... thanks for nothing..... pay pay pay pay pay ....... always pay from the poor people........
Hi Thanks for your query I can feel your concern Change your medications with minimal side effects and that will solve the issue. Have a proper clinical examination Hope it helps Regards Dr imran
It is true that some people have sexual dysfunction from the medicines used to treat depression. However, there is the option of using medicines which do not cause such severe side effects. Bupropion and mirtazapine do not cause sexual side effects and can be safely used by you. It also needs to be assessed if the sexual dysfunction is due to medications or due to depression itself.
Hope this helps you. Best wishes.
