PROZAC: beneath what dosage don't affect sex life?

Posted by eve70 on July 21, 2005, at 15:16:35

Hi,
I remenber that several months ago i did a prozac trial at 20mg. I remember that it worked quite well for anxiety and depression, but it gave me awful sex side effect with a total loss of libido and ability to have a normal sex life. So i stopped it.
Now, I was asking if a lower dosage (for example 10 or 5 mg/d, that are also used) couldn't evidence that disgusting and depressive side effect.
Do you have any experience about a bottom dosage under what sex side effects will not appear at all or not so badly?
There is or not a correlation between dosage and side effects?
I thank you very much for any share or info you will post!
As i know that side effect are different between man and woman, please let me know if you are male or female.
Thank you again.
eve

Some doctors recommend a drug holiday but prozac stays so long in your system it probably wouldn't work. I'm sure someone will answer about the low dose. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Fondly, Phillipa
