Has anyone been on Wellbutrin and Prozac and still had orgasms and a sex drive? If so, how much of each medication?

Do you really need to be on both?

Talk with your doctor. So much depends on your body size and chemistry as well as the problem for which it has been described.

Do NOT take advice from any of us. Speak with your psychiatrist directly.

Guys are so different than gals when it comes to this area but for me--Prozac has never affected my drive or anything else for that matter,I take Paxil 20 mg.& Wellbutrin 150-300 mg. plus Remeron 30 mg.+ Klonopin 4 mg.+ Depakote 1250 mg.+ Zyrtec 180 mg.+ Lipitor 40 mg.+ Levoxyl 50 mcg.+ Estrace 1 mg.+ Robaxin 2000 mg.+ Ultram 300 mg..and can still have one. Side effects wear off but if they don't there are other things to help. My ex had to switch to the anti-depressant-Remeron. He takes a lot more meds now which used to effect him(if you know what I mean). He recently had a couple of heart attacks and since that time,apparantly,no drug can keep him down. I presume the lack of adequate blood flow to all parts of his body was the real cause. Do your research and talk with your shrink,save yourself a lot of frustration..

sounds like a lot of meds. it's been said that wellbutrin has less sexual side effects than other anti-depressents but, i believe the prozac will cause the problems. i don't really know about both together. just curious but, why both?

My husband has been on antidepressants for many years. Prozac, Effexor and back on a stronger dose of Prozac. It takes some adjustment's to get back in the swing of things, but it's still very good for us.

Remember, sexual arrousal is 99% mental, and since your mental outlook should start improving once you have been on medication for a while, your love life can also improve.

I've been on 450mg of Wellbutrin for a couple years and it hasn't effected my sex life at all.
