How to achieve orgasm while on antidepressants?

Dee Asked by denisemc about 1 year ago, 1 answer.

Has anyone had problems achieving an orgasm while on Effexor XR. I know this is a common side effect but any suggestions on how to overcome this barrier. We have tried MANY things and I'm to the point of giving up. Help!!!

Hi,

here are some suggestions.

* Talk to your doctor about changing your dose.
* Consider a drug that requires only a once-a-day dose, and schedule sexual activity before taking that dose.
* Talk to your doctor about adding or switching to an antidepressant that may counteract these effects, such as bupropion (Wellbutrin, Wellbutrin SR, Wellbutrin XL) or mirtazapine (Remeron, Remeron SolTab).
* Talk to your doctor about taking a medication intended to directly treat sexual dysfunction.
* Talk to your doctor about a drug holiday — stopping medication for a day or so each week.
