Do Suboxone, Xanax And Seroquel Cause Infertility?
My husband takes quite a few medications to manage his depression, anxiety, and opioid dependence. He s taking suboxone, seraquel, lamictal, and Xanax. Can you tell me if any of these would affect his fertility and/or the potential baby? He was taking all of these medications except the Xanax when we conceived our daughter, and she is perfectly healthy. We ve been trying to conceive for 7 months without success (I had a very early miscarriage 10 months ago). I would appreciate any input. Thank you.

Hi,
This medication can cause a big harm to sperms and your husband's ability for good erection. Hence, you need to consult his psychiatrist to change this medication.
