While many men complain about not being able to, something is happening to me that I frequently have nocturnal erections that last the better part of the night. The make sleeping difficult and are becoming increasing bothersome as they are very frequent now. I've read that some SSRIs that antagonize 5HT2C (like paroxetine) can help this issue while others like (Trazodone) can aggratave it.
Anything that might inhibit NOS synthesis should help this issue. I'm not sure what is going on but it is starting to really get me worried.Thanks in advance.

Havn't heard of too much. I know SJW has some inhitibory effect on 5-ht2c. I think the herb, feverfew might also have some effect there.
THere was another migrane herb (can't recall the name right now) that had some 5-ht2c antagonist effect.

I did some Googling and found that Kudzu contains an ingredient "puerarin" that is reported to be a 5-HT2C inhibitor.

Google really didn't show me anything that linked Feverfew or SJW to 5-HT2C
