Tricyclic Antidepressants

Male fertility

Question:

Hi folks, I’ve been taking Prozac and Klonopin for almost 5 years. I’m curious to know if any male fertility studies have been done that anyone is aware of. Have any people (males) been able to conceive (on prozac) without problems or congenital defects? I’ve never heard of such a study but plan on starting my own family someday if I may. GT

Can’t help you on this one. I wasn’t taking anything at the time, was taking the tricyclic imipramine before, and taking lithium after, and only later taking the SSRIs Paxil and Prozac. Jim O
