Retrograde ejaculation associated with quetiapine and treatment with low-dose imipramine.
Sexual side-effects are common among those using antipsychotic medication and may result in poor compliance and reduced quality of life. Retrograde ejaculation (RE) has been described occurring with a number of antipsychotic medications (thioridazine, risperidone, iloperidone and clozapine) but there are no guidelines regarding management of antipsychotic-associated RE. Imipramine has been suggested as a treatment for antipsychotic-associated RE in one small study of patients prescribed thioridazine and a case series of patients prescribed iloperidone. Quetiapine is a commonly used antipsychotic and is thought to be associated with less sexual side-effects relative to other antipsychotic medications. This case report describes a 25-year-old man with first episode psychosis who developed RE during treatment with quetiapine which improved with low-dose imipramine. This is the first description of RE occurring with quetiapine and successful treatment of quetiapine-associated RE with imipramine.
