Does Buspirone have any sexual side effects?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

No medicine or counseling can alter sexual orientation. Be absolutely clear about this. Any attempt to change orientation by a doctor is considered unethical by professional organizations including the Indian Psychiatric Society, American Psychiatric Association and World Health Organization. All therapies are aimed at making you comfortable with whatever your orientation is. There should be no shame in accepting your orientation. No, Buspirone does not have any sexual side effects. But, the dose you are taking is inadequate. Consult a specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and increase the dosage with consent. Other options include adding Bupropion (antidepressant), Mirtazapine (antidepressant), or Cyproheptadine (antihistamine). Depending upon the exact nature of sexual side effect, more specific remedies can be suggested. Regarding your laughing problem, I will need more information about it to comment. Long period means how long? Is there anything specific that precipitates your laugh? What happens if you try to stop it? Is it associated with any specific thought or act? Kindly revert with the answers to the above questions.
