PDA

View Full Version : ADHD, Conserta, Wellbutrine and sexual side effects

I started about 7 years ago on Ritalin and have since switched to Conserta. I like the Conserta, because with the 4 hour Ritalin, I got peeks and valleys, like was mentioned before.

In addition to the ADHD, I also have depression. I was taking Serzone, but it had the usual sexual side effects, nearly impossible to climax during sex. I switched to Wellbutrine, and now I can achieve an orgasm, but I am having a problem with impotency. I am able to climax, but I have a difficult time getting or maintaining an erection. Viagra works, but I am still wondering if the Wellbutrine, or the combination of Wellbutrine and Conserta are having an effect on my erection (or lack there of). I know that when ever you take a cold pill which is one of the non-drowsy types with a stimulant in it, that will effect your ability to get an erection, and I am wondering if the Ritalin and Conserta, being stimulants may have some effect.

Also, I do get irritable and sometimes have a problem with anger. Note sure if any of my meds are contributing to that or not. I may just have the usually frustrating life.

Any help anyone can lend would be appreciated.

Aggitation is a common side effect of both Concerta and Wellbutrin, among many others. SSRI's cause sexual side effects. If you want, download the Wellbutrin and Concerta PDF's and look at their adverse effects. There are many serious ones that effect heart and eyes. Psych meds will always cause continual problems, that's why many are finding other ways like counseling, nutrition and exercise and re-defining what they expect of themselves vs. others.
