A member asked:

My husband was prescribed stresam and only to take 1 tablet at night and he's been on it for exactly a week. since on the pill atleast 3 times he has struggled with orgasm and arsoual. is this from the stresam?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Streasam: I don't think that this is unusual with antianxiety medications. To prove he's having these side effects, he could taper off the medication gradually over a week or so by taking 1/2 the dose for 3 nights, 1/4 for 3 nights and then, if possible, 1/8 for 2 nights. If side effect clears, ask his MD to try a different medication.
