In reply to Klonopin and Sexual Function..., posted by cache-monkey on January 7, 2005, at 21:08:08

Hey:
I feel very qualified to answer this query!
I have been on Klonopin at the following doses: 1mg per day (with.5mg as needed, extra)
.5mg daily, and now
.25mg daily.
I took this as mono-therapy for about 2 months. Zero sexual problems.
Reduced dosage to .5mg, added Buspar. Zero sexual problems, no improved therapuetic effect.
Dropped Buspar, added Moclobemide(varying doses) to the Klonopin, zero sexual s/e's. AWFUL OTHER s/e's.
Dropped Mocolobemide.
Added Celexa (10mg)to the Klonopin. After 6 weeks...and BINGO! Sexual side effects...all of them, decreased sensitivity, followed by complete anorgasmia, later joined by no libido!!!!
3 months later, dropped Celexa.
Substituted tryptophan into my Klon. combo. previous sexual side effects started to diminish...libido came back, then sensitivity increased (slowly). Now pretty much back to pre-Celexa, I guess.
Moral of this long tale:
Klonopin caused NO sexual S/E's (in fact I found it a little uninhibiting, because I wasn't worried about performance - I'm female, we worry about that too).
Celexa absolutely DID cause them.
Hope that helps a bit.
Jas
