im taking pristiq, and i've actually noticed an increase in libido. (female btw)
i was on effexor YEARS ago and don't remember if it caused any sexual side effects for me.
i did however have TONS of other VERY negative SE from effexor. its probably the worst AD i've been on. rapid cycled extremes, awful tired first month...went on drinking binges, etc.now with pristiq the only negative things are it did take forever for it to kick in for me..i'd say 5-6 weeks.
and i notice more hair than normal coming out in my brush in the mornings.
BUT its working.it seems like a "softer" version of effexor.
best wishes
