“…Both olanzapine and clozapine are considered to cause less sexual side‐effects; however there is an increasing number of case reports of retrograde ejaculation and priapism with all three medications (Higgins et al . 2005; Storch 2002). Findings suggest that consumers treated with clozapine show increased desire for more meaningful relationships and more sexual contact (Higgins et al .…”

This article is a review of the literature examining the sexuality of mental health consumers and the role of mental health nurses. A search identified 72 English articles on the topic. The evidence clearly indicates that sexuality is a critical aspect of who we are as individuals, and of how we view ourselves, but discussion of this topic is neglected by mental health nurses. Discussion focuses upon the wide acceptance of sexuality as a legitimate area for nurses to address in their care, and addresses mental health nurses' lack of knowledge about sexuality, conservative attitudes, and anxiety when discussing sexual issues. Consumer sexuality is poorly assessed in mental health, and is infrequently explored by mental health nurses. The result is that issues of sexuality for the consumer continue to affect many areas of their lives, including their relationships and ongoing commitment to treatment. The nurse-consumer relationship provides an opportunity to take sexual history into consideration, promote safe sexual practices, discuss sexual problems, and educate clients about sexual issues. This literature review identifies the need for further discussion of this topic and for research to point the way ahead for this important but neglected area of mental health nursing.

“…[3] However, there are only a small number of cases discussed in literature regarding this complaint with atypical antipsychotics. [45] Not many cases with risperidone-induced retrograde ejaculation has been reported previously. Retrograde ejaculation is thought to be related to the strong adrenolytic activity of risperidone.…”

Risperidone-induced retrograde ejaculation and lurasidone may be the alternative

Medication adherence with antipsychotics is adversely impacted by the burden of untoward adverse effects. In particular, sexual side effects are often underreported by patients, which may interfere with drug compliance. Presented here is the case of a 35-year-old male with schizophrenia, previously treated with risperidone following which he developed sexual dysfunction and hence was stopped. He was admitted to our psychiatric inpatient ward after a second psychotic exacerbation of the disorder after being drug free for about 6 months. On admission, treatment with risperidone was restarted, following which he developed retrograde ejaculation on oral risperidone therapy at a dose of 8 mg/day, with resolution of symptoms after cross tapering risperidone with lurasidone. Pharmacological interventions that may reduce antipsychotic-induced sexual dysfunction include changing the type of medication and administering other medications that are known to improve sexual dysfunction. This case emphasizes the need for routine inquiry into sexual dysfunction during atypical antipsychotic therapy.
