Zoloft Sexual SE, fixable w/o Stims/Remeron???

Posted by Dysthymic George on June 12, 2002, at 6:40:39

Hi,

Zoloft works well for my depression, but the sexual side effects are getting very annoying after a year of it.

I could try to counteract it with stimulants, but Wellbutrin gave me *horrid* agitation, and I did not even enjoy cocaine due to difficulty relaxing and muscle tension. Even caffeine agitates me, so this leads me to believe that stims just aren't for me.

I tried Remeron monotherapy once but the antihistamingergic properties caused some dysphoria AND the alpha2 antagonism caused the worst akasthisia of my life. Plus I slept 12+ hours a night.

Are there any other meds with which I can augment an SSRI to lessen the sexual side effects?

Serzone agitated me as well, so I am weary of norepinephrine increasers.

Anything out there that is a pure 5-HT2/3 antagonist?

George
