A month later, cabergoline is still giving me a good dopaminergic effect in terms of AD augmentation, but isn't doing what it used to be doing for sexual dysfunction, despite taking 2mg/day. I think the problem is that I'm on buprenorphine in addition to phenelzine, which can cause sexual dysfunction also. I am going to try Tongkat Ali or some other thing to boost testosterone, as I believ the buprenorphine may be suppressing GnRH to some degree or doing something else endocrinological that a DA agonist cannot fix.
Given the results of DA agonists for SSRI sex dysfunction, I think cabergoline would be JUST FINE if you aren't also taking an opioid (I take 16mg/day sublingual, which I believe is like 0.6mg IV qid, the absolute highest dose possible, heh).
