> Are you aware of any drugs which have successfully been used to treat phenelzine induced anorgasmia? If so, can you provide some indication of efficacy?
Sexual side effects of MAOIs are common and as difficult to treat as those with SSRIs. There are also no systematic studies, only case studies in the literature to provide guidance. Serotonin 5-HT2A receptor blockers have been used, but there is a least one case report of a possible interaction between cyproheptadine and phenelzine. There is another case report in the literature on the use of sildenafil to treat MAOI-induced sexual dysfunction.
