Scott,
Had same problem with libido when I was taking Zoloft. Viagra took care of that.
I have been off my cocktail of Prozac, Remeron, Lamictal and Lithium a couple of months now. I have been on Nardil up to 45mg for 3 weeks started at 15mg. I have to say that it has definitely lifted my unipolar depression and will probably have to increase dosage when I see my new pdoc on May 12. I fired my last one, when he refused to even consider rxing Trazadone for my insomnia. Anyway, I am taking generic Benadryl which seems to take care of the insomnia SE from Nardil. This is the same pdoc that forced me to sign a separate waiver form on Lamictal, hoping to discourage me from even trying it by scaring me with the "sometimes fatal rash" warning which I was very well aware of.
Are you still taking Lamictal? Lamictal seemed to have been effective initially then just seemed to fade just as quickly. That is when I decided to try Nardil. Nardil maybe the magic bullet yet!! Like Ace says, "Nardil Rules!"

Lexapro, on the other hand, did produce these effects. I am experiencing only one side effect from Zoloft - reduced libido. This really sucks, but it is truly worth the sacrifice if these drugs do for me what I need them to.
