Question:

3 years ago my G.P. dianosed me as being clinically depressed and prescribed Cipramil tablets. I have once tried to come off them but within 4 weeks I was having my original symptoms and was advised to go back on them. I am now at my wits end as I have a complete loss of libido which I am aware is a side effect of  antidepressants and as a result am considering to once again try to manage without the help of the Cipramil. Has anyone experienced a similar problem and if so how have you managed to overcome it ? P.S. also known as Citalopram Hydrobromide.

Response:

Why not try another anti-depressant?  There are many out on the market today & I would think you should be able to find one with minimal side effects.  It might take some trial & error, however. >3 years ago my G.P. dianosed me as being clinically depressed and prescribed >Cipramil tablets.
