Dear Lybrate-User,
escitalopram and clomipramine can cause ed. You have to compromise between ocd/depression and ed. Which is better for your quality of life. Are you married? Are you planning to have a child? If so and if you are having benefit with these drugs, you can try sildenafil for sexual intercourse. Please discuss with the same doctor treating ocd. No need to consult sexologist unless referred.

Alprazolam on a longer run is dangerous and causes serious side effects. It is good to switch to escitalopram and clonazepam, but some develop heaviness as you said. You can discuss with your psychiatrist and change to better medications, which control anxiety well without heavy head. All the best.

Are you taking these with regular psychiatrist review, or on your own. As these come under medications which require regular review for side effects, resistance and other issues.

There is no harm in giving nexito tab even after a stroke. Its probably given for some anxiety issues.
But if he does not need it anymore, it can be discontinued safely.

Dear Benazir,
All these antidepressants take 2-3 weeks to start action on your mood. They lift the mood at a particular dose. Doctors always start with low dose so that you can tolerate them better.

Depending on the diagnosis, improvement, side effects, psychosocial factors, the duration of treatment may be 6 months or life long. D...more

Yes clonazepam can cause sleep even if you've been taking it for a long period. To give you respite from sleepiness and other side effects your dosage regime need to be altered slightly.
During this alteration you might have to tolerate few side effects for a few days but will definitely help you in the long run.
Please make dose adjustments only when you can afford side effects for a few days.
