In reply to Sexual problemos on Effexor, Any Ideas?, posted by AnneL on April 11, 2001, at 23:49:11
Either buspirone or mirtazapine are recommended in the Tips for this condition. But I believe these need to be taken for a couple weeks to work--like everything in this field. Methylphenidate is the other option but it is too stimulating.
I found mirtazapine to work so well when I was on Effexor, that I even had _premature_ ejaculation.

> I'am already on two meds, Effexor XR 75 mg. daily and Klonopin 1 mg. at night. I've heard Wellbutrin might help. Is this something added to the current mix or is the Effexor discontinued. I can't take a super agitating med which I understand Wellbutrin to be. Ideas, folks? Thanks, AnneL
