Indications

Yohimbine is indicated in erectile dysfunction, loss of libido & exhaustion.

Therapeutic Class

Herbal and Nutraceuticals

Pharmacology

Yohimbe is a potent alpha-2 adrenoceptor blocker and a weak alpha-1 adrenergic antagonist with some antidopaminergic properties. Yohimbe interacts with adrenoceptors that are selectively stimulated by clonidine, alpha-methylnorepinephrine, tramazoline, guanabenz & guanfacin. It also interacts with compounds that are nonselectively stimulated by norepinephrine and epinephrine. Yohimbe has a modest beneficial effect in the management of erectile dysfunction. Because of the alpha-2 adrenergic blockade, the drug is an effective treatment for sexual disorders such as decreased libido and decreased sexual response, caused by selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

Dosage

1 capsule 3 times daily or as advised by the physician

Interactions

Theoretically, Yohimbe may counteract the hypotensive effect of antihypertensive medications, resulting inadequate blood pressure control. It may potentiate pharmaceutical MAO-inhibitors
