Help.
« on: April 28, 2015, 10:29:21 PM »
Hello all !

I wonder if you can help me.
Are there any ADs' that don't destroy your libido.
I might try and get Valdoxan off my GP tomorrow. I heard that's not too bad.

 :welcome: and I'm sorry nobody has responded to you.  My life has been chaotic (in a good way  :angel: ) recently with volunteering and church life so have been a bit lapse in checking on new posts.

It's a bit hit and miss with anti depressants so what will work well for one person won't be right for another.  Just keep being honest with your GP.

Can you maybe start on a low dose of the Valdoxan to slowly introduce your body to it?   ;D
Money talks, chocolate sings!  :-D

May your life be as pleasant as you are.

Been on valdoxan for 6 months (ish)and still no change but that's just me. I hope it helps you. Just remember to get your liver function tested regularly.
