Antidepressants have become some of the most commonly prescribed medications in the US, especially SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors). These are prescribed not just by psychiatrists, but also by internists, neurologists, family practitioners, cardiologists and gastroenterologists for depression and anxiety.
Of course, no medication comes without side effects, and SSRIs have theirs as well. The most common of these side effects are GI disturbances (nausea, soft stools or constipation), weight gain, sleepiness or insomnia - as well as sexual side effects, such as decreased sex drive, problems with erection, and delayed ability to reach orgasm/ejaculation.
