Successful treatment of
citalopram-induced anorgasmia by
cyproheptadine.
Lauerma H.
Psychiatric
Clinic, University Central Hospital of Turku, Finland.
This is
the first report of the use of cyproheptadine to treat anorgasmia
induced by citalopram, a highly selective serotonine reuptake inhibitor
(SSRI). Total anorgasmia of a 47 year-old man who suffered from severe
unipolar major depression was successfully treated without adverse
effects. This case strengthens the impression that anorgasmia associated
with SSRIs is related primarily to the serotonine reuptake inhibition
and not to various receptor bindings of different
compounds.
