In reply to Numb/Sex. Problems..., posted by SheilaC on August 11, 2009, at 15:09:33

I just got back from my pdoc and spent most of the time trying to figure out how to overcome the sexual side effects of pristiq- which is not supposed to have sexual side effects for women!
I have been on 100mgs of wellbutrin SR which has done nothing in 3 weeks. Does give me a little more energy but no improvement in the sex department. We are switching to Wellbutrin 150mg XL, extended release to see if I can tolerate a higher dose without getting too anxious. I also have a script for Viagra. The deal is that it won't increase desire but it does increase blood flow and does help some women. There is also a med called Mirapex, a dopamine agonist which is a drug used for Parkinsons which does increase sexuality in some people. Floating Bridge actually told me about it. That would be the next step if neither of the others work. It's a complete and total drag. I'll keep you updated if there is any good or bad news.
