> Has anyone ever tried Ritalin w/an SSRI to alleviate the sexual side effects. I read in a book that either of these Buspar, Gingko, Wellbutrin or Ritalin could alleviate the sexual problems. I zeroed in on Ritalin because I also have ADD.
I'm sorry to say my own experiences don't provide much reason for optimism. I nver tried Buspar, but I was on various SSRI/Wellbutrin combos and one SSRI/Ritalin combo, and also tried Gingko with SSRIs, and none of these combinations helped with the sexual side effects. Some of the combinations were good in other ways, but the sexual problems seemed to be inescapable as long as I was taking an SSRI.
