esmereldaskysurfer Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I've recently started on very low dose Haldol (1mg per day) and it is literally a wonder drug. Im less paranoid, i can think clearly, im not having daily panic attacks. In short, i love it. However, one of the reasons i've stayed so long on Latuda is because it's never affected my sex drive whereas other meds have in the past. The PI sheet for Haldol mentions erectile dysfunction in men, but doesnt mention if sex drive is particularly affected in women. I wondered if anyone minded sharing their experience with Haldol and sex drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 (edited) I never noticed a difference in my sex drive on Haldol. Or ability to orgasm. Betwen 5-20mg orally daily. It was pretty libido neutral for me. Edit: I'm female. Edited February 4, 2014 by thesystemisdown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Turtle Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Since I started taking 1mg Haldol (and also Venlafaxine) I have definitely lost interest in sex. Sorry if this is TMI but I have 100% lost desire for either foreplay or self-lovin' although I still generally want p-in-v sex. Slightly contradictory, I know. But that's how it is. I'm so sleepy and disinterested in most things since taking the drugs, even though they are wonderful at stopping hallucinations etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellifluous Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 i've mostly done the acute injections and i can't say there was a difference in sex drive...not increased or decreased but the circumstances may play a role there. i've taken pills, but it was several years ago, and don't recall an increase or decrease significant enough to remember...and i took them at an age where i would've noticed a change, if that makes sense. there have been others that made it plummet, but i don't recall haldol ever so doing. glad it's working for you and hope it continues to without that side effect x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
