Just returned from the Dr.'s and learned that any improvements in sex drive from Wellbutrin XL would have occurred by now (3.5 wks). He's reluctant at this point to increase the Wellbutrin XL to 300mg/day because of the ringing in my ears. The ringing started after Wellbutrin was added to my Lexapro. I have another appt. in 2 months and he will re-evaluate as the ringing is improving but my sex drive is not. :(

Well, you aren't alone. Wellbutrin didn't work for me either. The ringing in the ears is a common s/e. I had it and it went away when I stopped wellbutrin. I read on a totally different forum that viagra helped a woman on lexapro.

While it doesn't bother me to consider using it, the medical ramifications causes me to be very wary about it, especially the heart-related problems it could cause.
I'm lucky in that I have very understanding husband who knows that while initiating never enters my mind right now, I certainly won't turn him down if he does.
My biggest worry is that if the ear ringing doesn't subside in 2 months he will want to take me off it and I have to be honest -- the positive aspects of Wellbutrin far outnumber the negatives.
