In reply to Seroquel and No Sex Drive, posted by Misty on February 18, 2001, at 2:45:53
> Has anyone had the experience of Seroquel causing diminished sex drive in men? I am involved with someone who has been taking Seroquel for depression for a few months. His sex drive has been decreasing consistently at the same time that his attachment to me, expression of emotion, etc. has increased, leading me to be very confused. He states that while he has the ability, he has absolutely no desire. I'm taking this all very personally, so this is my last stab at saving my ego...and this relationship
Your bo may want to have his prolactin levels checked- perhaps that is involved with this. If high, he may wish to take bromocriptine to lower the prolactin or try switching to Zyprexa, like Seroquel a neuroelptic, since it has little effect on prolactin.
