What I can understand from your description is that, you are better on particular combination of medicines but now having sexual side effects of form of delayed or no ejaculation. For this purpose, you can take cyproheptadine 4 mg as and when required before intercourse (2 hours before. But consult a psychiatrist before starting medications.

Hi, I can understand that there is a dilemma between getting adequate response from medication and getting relief from sexual adverse effects.

If you want to stay on paroxetine, then other potential options are either decreasing dose of paroxetine (provided your depressive symptoms are under control) or adding a different medication such as bupropion or mirtazapine etc. Ins...more

Arcalion or sulbutiamine 200 mg is a nutritional supplement which is a derivative of a b vitamin called thiamine.

Praxotine is a ssri, it will not make sense to add another ssri. Have you tried snri such as venlafaxine. Switching to snri is potential option. Depending on other symptoms such as level of anxiety, adding bupropion is a good option (unless you have anxiety). Trial of small dose of tricyclic or mood stabilizer are also options.
