I took both (Sarafin is just another name for Prozac) and for me the sexual side effects of Celexa were milder than Prozac. But I don't think that there are any guarantees that you won't get any sexual side effects. I guess you have an optimistic doc.
Some things you can add to Celexa if you do get sexual side effects are Wellbutrin, Ginkgo, and Remeron. The only one I tried was Ginkgo (120 mg twice per day) and it mostly reversed the sexual side effects that I got from Celexa. But check with your doctor first since it is not to be taken if you have or develop bleeding problems.
> I have just started taking Celexa, and after reading these posts, Im not too sure. I was taking Sarafin, but couldnt handle the side effects, so was switched over. My Dr. guaranteed me of no sexual side effects, is he wrong?????
