My father passed away on "dec 1, 2020" being affected with covid-19. I went into severe depression following this and was recommended 'daxid 100 mg' tablets (1 after breakfast and 2 after dinner). After continuing the medication for more than a year, I stopped taking it. As i've married recently, my wife is worried about any related side-effect of this medication in conjugal life/intercourse and any risk in welcoming a child, as I continued it for such a long time. Do I need to take any remedial measures?

Hi, daxid may not cause any significant problem in your conjugal life. No evidence till now of any effect of medicines taken by a male in their offspring.

If you have been well for the past 6 months, you might consider stopping the medicine, but gradually reducing it over 01 month. If not you should continue till 6 months of recovery has occured. Otherwise symptoms will replase. Any sexual side effect of the medicine can be totally managed and if they occur they are not permanent.

You have not mentioned any sexual side effects. It can be reduced desire, reduced erection or delayed ejaculation. What do you have among these? They disappear after stopping the medication in about 4-12 weeks. Good luck.

No, there is not much to worry about your conjugal life or welcoming a child in your family. Daxid do cause some sexual dysfunction in few patients but these side effects vanish once drug is washed out of the body completely. None of the dise effects are permanent. So, nothing much to worry. Good day.

Hi lybrate-user, if you are feeling better and able to cope with life situations then its fine. In case, if you find any disturbance in your routine you can consult a doctor. As a remedial measure, do practice regular physical exercise, healthy food habits and proper sleep. This would help you to balance your emotions. Would recommend to consult a psychologist to clarify all doubts.
