More than 35 percent of the patients on SSRIs for depression and anxiety have reported anorgasmia or delayed ejaculation as a common side effect. Such effects can sometimes be reversed by medications like Cyproheptadine,which is an antiseronergic. Yohimbine has also been tried with limited success.

I can understand it's causing a lot of stress to you. It's best to mention everything to your psychiatrist and he will help you further. There have been reported cases where after stopping the drug patient had normal orgasms again.

If you have any further queries do get back to us.

Thanks for wrtiting to us again.


No celexa and Lexapro are both SSRIs, however they are not interchangeable. Now prescription wise only Celexa is available. They have the same effects. No such scientific evidence, but Celexa is the preferred drug.




Vibbryd is SSRI, but it is only given in major depressive disorders.

Thanks for posting your query.

Its great to find such patients who are so inquisitive and want to be aware of everything. There are various studies weighing the pros and cons of both, both nothing has been conclusive. All i can say is that Celexa is more preferred drug now. Celexa is used for major depressive disorders, with improvements expected in even anxiety disorders. It has also been used in some cases to delay ejaculation.

When it comes only to anxiety, Lexapro is the main drug used for Generalized Anxiety Disorder.

Both of them have similar side effects profile. Lexapro can lead to suicidal thinking in the future, which has been reported in a few cases. However commonly, the side effects are the same.

Hope that answers your query.

Hello.
Good to hear that your condition has been successfully treated.
I have not come across such studies but the general rule is if these claims are proven, it would be labelled for use in Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
Bupropion has a stimulant action but it is not a derivative of amphetamine. It is a relatively weak inhibitor of the neuronal uptake of norepinephrine and dopamine, thus having a mild stimulant effect.
I hope that answers all your questions.
Thank you.
