Hi The sexual side effects of Antidepressants are temporary in most cases. For example SSRI induced sexual side effects such as decrease libido and delay ejaculation are temporary. These side effects usually take 3 to 4 weeks to disappear and some time even may take long time ,but as you asked they are temporary. if you have any specific drug and their side effects then I can help you in more concise manner. Thanks and regards.
