solutions to side effects/sexual

Posted by JaneB on October 7, 2007, at 18:18:47

I have read that periactin can counter the dulling effects of SSRI's. Has any research/experience/documentation ever indicated that Ritalin can have a positive effect on diminished sexual response when taking Prozac? or other SSRI?
TIA JaneB

I found Dopamine Agonists (DA's) the best, like ropinirole, I have heard that mirapex works well for this too. I haven't tried stimulants for sexual side effects on ssri's but ropinirole does a very good job

Is it safe to take Ropinirole on a regular basis for sexual side effects?
