question about losing your sex drive while addicted to oxycontin

[jamielee55]

My friend is very worried about his sex drive, He was on oxycontin for 8 months and clean fro a little over two weeks. He is concerned that his that his sex drive won't come back to be what it used to, and he is having a problem getting an erection. How long, if ever, does it take to come back to normal???

Is he on any other medications? antidepressants are famous for this also..
any bi-polar meds?...and high blood pressure meds also?
actually a lot of meds have this side effect...its a real bummer...
i am so sorry...

most have increased sexual function after WDs are over and the drugs are out of the system...it is documented that sensation is decreased with alcohol or drug use

He should get his testosterone level checked. It may be lower from being on the pills. It's a simple blood test. There are things that can help with low testosterone.

It can take over a year to get it back if you get it back at all.
The brain is damaged, emotions are all distorted.

You will probably have to go to one of the pills on the market for help.

No clue..
.is this the same person you were having the lapse and relapse conversation with?  LOL

Would it be a lapse in sexual drive with an organ relapse?
