Drug induced prolactine elevation for men?

Posted by efishy on November 2, 2009, at 16:50:47

Hi I am thinking of trying Solian or Risperdal and I see that they both raise prolactin about three-fold for men. It seems like the risperdal elevation is less reversible than solian. I was wondering what kind of side effects this can lead to in men (out of curiousity since i am a man). I know that for women the effects may be worse than for men.

Have any men experienced anything more serious than sexual side effects? Like breast enlargement...

hi!
mmm... no! I'm on Solian since 3 years (the only drug that works for me) and I got bad sexual side effects only if I use it continously for weeks. Never reported breast problems.
I use it day in-day out and i can say that i got a sort of mild increase of sexual functions.
If you need more infos, ask me.
Bye!
Neo
