i got faint and very poor sex, but i cannot change the med i take.

Buspirone Hydrochloride Tablets
1 at noon, 2 at night
Ziprasidone Hydrochloride
3 at noon, 3 at night
Quetiapine Fumarate
1 at night

some told me the amount is just too high, and some told me just take two of them. i am new here so i cannot ask for help in a 'suitable' way, so i searched the net and want to know my problem exactly.

Welcome to MSF @chaand1988 - I am sorry but I do not know what they are for or what your condition is. Talk to prescriber or pharmacist and maybe they can help.

Good to meet you.

Both ziprasidone and quetiapine are anti-pyschotics and I believe can cause lightheadness/feeling faint. Quetiapine usually makes me very sleepy, so it makes sense to take that at night. Buspirone is for anxiety; I used to take it once in the morning, once at night, and didn't have noticeable side effects, but I don't tend to get a ton of side effects with meds; that varies person to person. I take 300 mg of the quetiapine at night and used to take 30 mg of the buspirone twice a day. As far as the ziprasidone, I'm not sure if that is a bit high for the dose; hopefully someone who has more experience with that med can tell you whether the dose is too high or not.

As far as sex goes, pretty much any psych med seems to have to the ability to decrease sex drive; there's really not much you can do other than ask your doctor about trying different meds that may have fewer sexual side effects.
