A recent article in Medscape showed Mianserin to reverse SSRI sexual dysfunction in 16 women participating in the clinical trial. All phases of sexual dysfunction were improved.
Remeron is a close derivative of Mianserin, with the same receptor blocking actions. Perhaps this is why some doctors in Dr Bob's Tips have had success treating SSRI sexual dysfunction with Remeron. I noted no sexual difficulties myself on Prozac when taking Remeron for sleep. JohnL

In reply to Medscape: Remeron for SSRI sexual dysfunction., posted by JohnL on January 8, 2000, at 5:16:18
A personal observation: Taking a new medication, (ex. remeron, lamictal, and even Midrin) seemed to enable a rare but welcomed sexual response. Usually on the first day of beginning the med. Sometimes during sleep. Strange phenomenon. Very disappointing that the effect of the med did not last. Almost makes me willing to give different meds a one day trial to see if it is my imagination. Has anyone else ever had this experience? If so, can you explain it?
