There appears to be a great deal of excitement regarding the potential of clomipramine and serotonin reuptake inhibitor drugs to treat rapid ejaculation. I worry that pharmacologic intervention will be recommended indiscriminately by busy physicians unaware of the complexities of men's/couples' sexual equilibrium. Interdisciplinary teams need to develop thoughtful guidelines that address the thorny issues surrounding the evolution of this new treatment alternative.
