A recent study published in the Journal of American Medical Association found that the erectile dysfunction drug Viagra worked effectively at fighting sexual dysfunction in women taking antidepressants.
The study included 98 women whose depression was in remission but were still experiencing sexual problems such as pain during intercourse, lack of arousal and lack of interest. Over an 8 week period the women took a pill up to two hours prior to sex; half were given Viagra and the other half a placebo.
72% of the women taking the Viagra reported improvement while 73% of those on the placebo pill reported no improvement.
"By treating this bothersome treatment-associated adverse effect in patients who have been effectively treated for depression, but need to continue on their medication to avoid relapse or recurrence, patients can remain antidepressant-adherent, reduce the current high rates of premature medication discontinuation, and improve depression disease management outcomes," wrote lead author George Nurnberg of the University of New Mexico School of Medicine.
Currently Viagra is only U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved for use by men.
