Hi, lack of labido is not listed as a known side effect of tramadol (check out the following link http://www.drugs.com/tramadol.html). Although some people have reported it. Personally i have not expeienced it and neither has my friend who also takes it. It really depends on the person, everyone is different you know. I've not experienced lack of sexual desire from any pain killers i have ever taken, and have not heard of what Balbanese has posted? As i say, everyone is different though...

ty, yes I know it is not listed as side effect, however my therapist said more than likely it does add to it, as that is a very common side effect of almost all anti-depressants, my sex drive has never been that gr8 lol, but in last 3 yrs or so, been almost non-existent, which is about how long I have been taking ultram. I know some of it prob due to age, Im 50, and some prob situational, but just curious if anyone else has experienced this with ultram.
Hi, does your therapist put Tramadol in the antidepressants group? Just I've never heard that before? I know it has been proven to have SSRI properties, but always thought of it primarily as a synthetic opiate analgesic. Id be interested if you could let me know? : )
