Tadalafil is working in women too
Depression is one of the most prevalent human conditions in medicine today.
Sometimes antidepressants are prescribed for what might be more accurately called "problems in daily living" than formal clinical depression. The obstacles of life have gotten a person down, and his/her doctor has decided that a course of drug therapy might prove very helpful. Often, the treatment proves to be effective.
However, one side effect of some antidepressants is that they cause sexual dysfunction in about two-thirds of patients who administer them. Then doctors along with patients face a dilemma: how does specialist help you to feel better when the drug being prescribed may bother with patients’ sex life?
Recent researches are convincing that the solution for the problem is on the way. Several years ago have been reported that for several women who were suffering from the sexual dysfunction as the result of depression treatment, the dose of Tadalafil administered before sexual activity – the same as prescribed to men – revealed very well results.
These three case reports cannot substitute for a well-designed, large-scale study of tadalafil's possible benefits for women and men, but they may point to a new therapeutic avenue for medication-induced sexual dysfunction.
Many strategies have been reported to assist patients in minimizing impairment, with variable degrees of success. One of the newer approaches is to augment with Tadalafil. Our report using the most recently released agent in this class, tadalafil is the first demonstrating potential benefit in women. Tadalafil utility was maintained over time and was well tolerated
