Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Ok, here is another thing I found. I am not sure whether or not anyone has looked into the link between sexual functioning and the muscarinic system. It seems to me that pssd may be related to voluntary muscle movements as much as it is dopamine/serotonin. Do you think that is a possibility? That may explain inability to cry etc. This could explain why even people with high libido find it difficult to get voluntary erections. " Bethanechol is a cholinergic agonist that has occasionally been useful in reversing sexual dysfunction associated with TCAs and MAOIs. [70-73] Typical doses are 10mg to 20mg as needed or 30mg to 100mg daily in a divided dose. Potential side effects with bethanechol include diarrhea, cramps, and diaphoresis. No reports have evaluated or suggested the efficacy of bethanechol for treating SSRI-induced sexual side effects. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
