## Resource

This is a big one! So I chopped it into two episodes. We're talking about sexual adverse effects associated with serotonergic medications. This is a huge adverse effect and it's the one that probably bothers the most patients, but it can be uncomfortable to talk about, so let's talk about it. What can we do about this adverse effect while still getting the positive effect from the medication. Let's start by going over why it happens and some techniques to stop it if it does. Then in Part 2 I'll go into depth on the PDE5 inhibitors like Viagra.
