In reply to Has anyone's libido/sex drive been helped by SSRI, posted by Marc Boucher on November 29, 2005, at 22:48:43
Prozac enhanced libido for me. Lexapro at first hurt it, but then libido was fine after a couple weeks. All the others were anti-libido indefinitely.
Prozac is an atypical ssri, in that it causes a release of dopamine and norepinephrine in a way that none of the others do.
Blocking the particular 5HT receptors involved with ssri side effects can help. For me, even just a miniscule 1.25mg zyprexa does that.
