Abstract
Sexual dysfunction is a common problem for patients taking antidepressants, with the highest prevalence rates observed with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Sexual dysfunction can be distressing for patients and may lead to medication non -adherence; thus, it is important for the prescribers to be aware of the available treatment strategies, as well as of the strength of the evidence that supports their use. We present the case of a patient who developed delayed ejaculation after the initiation of sertraline for the treatment of depression. The patient's sexual dysfunction resolved after the addition of buspirone. A discussion of this case is followed by a review of the existing literature examining the possible role of buspirone in the treatment of SSRI-induced sexual dysfunction.
