(ATDN) Sexually or Emotionally Depressed?


(ATDN) Sexually or Emotionally Depressed?

Treatment Review #17 - March 1995


HIV infection can change your ability to function sexually and this often leads to depression. Depression can also be a condition related to being HIV-positive. What to do? Several clinical trials are enrolling people at Cornell University, under the compassionate and skilled guidance of Dr. Judith Rabkin. A trial is enrolling to study testosterone replacement as a treatment for loss of sex drive or depression. Another trial is enrolling to study Prozac for the treatment of HIV infection in people who are HIV+. A third trial comparing different types of psychotherapy to the combination of psychotherapy and imipramine is also enrolling. If you are interested in any of these studies, call The Network at (800) 734-7104.
