This talk about sexual dysfunction has me worried...
I have had only brief trials on TCAs like imipramine and desipramine
(and clomipramine, now that I think about it). I found them all nearly
intolerable. Physical misery in a pill. The side effect of these drugs
I found most distressing was almost complete sexual dysfunction. I mean
NO ability to even get close to an orgasm and barely enough response to
produce a disapointing state of turgidity.That this could be a function of elevated NE hadn't occurred to me.
Given all the theories out there, there's no reason to think it would,
but I prefer firsthand accounts over cute and unproven mechanistics.
Using rebox. as an augmentation was something I was very much
looking forward to trying.> I have been taking reboxetine (Edronax) for depression for about a week. I am noticing positive effects, especially in relation to increased energy. However, despite the manufacturer's claim that reboxetine causes much less sexual dysfunction than SSRIs, I am totally impotent while on the drug. The manufacturer also claims side effects diminish after a few weeks, but I would rather hear that from someone who has actually taken the drug.
