Summary:
Are Antidepressants Negatively Affecting Your Sex Drive?
Taking an antidepressant can negatively affect different aspects of your sex life. It can diminish your interest in sex, lower your libido and/or reduce your sexual performance. If your depression has improved on your antidepressant but you are experiencing lowered sexual function as a result, you may qualify for an investigational medication research study.
To qualify, you must be:
- taking paroxetine (Paxil), sertraline (Zoloft) or citalopram (Celexa) for at least 8 weeks
- between the ages of 18-55
