Nuzak
I have been using for a couple of years now, 20mg per day. My doctor increased it to 40mg a month ago. One of my friends, a pharmacist, mentioned to me it can influence your libido. Lately I have been experiencing this. Is it because of using Nuzak? What alternative medication can I use that will do the same as Nuzak without affecting my libido?
CyberDoc
Hi
Absolutely right, but we have to weigh the pros and cons. Does the nuzak do its job? What condition are you treating? Secondly, all of those drugs have side effects, and some may be worse than others.
Anyway, this class of drug is known to have sexual effects.
You need to inform your doctor, you may need an additional drug (bupropion) or an alternative drug completely.
Good luck (message the cybershrink for more info)
