A 41-year-old male experienced prolonged priapism, a rare condition, after taking trazodone for depression. This case highlights an unusual side effect of this common antidepressant medication.

Area of Science:

  • Andrology
  • Pharmacology
  • Urology

Background:

  • Trazodone is a common antidepressant used for treating depression.
  • Priapism is a prolonged erection, often painful and unrelated to sexual stimulation.
  • Antidepressant-induced priapism is a rare but serious adverse effect.

Observation:

  • A 41-year-old male patient presented with a 72-hour history of priapism.
  • The patient was undergoing treatment with trazodone for depression.
  • This presentation was evaluated at an Andrology unit.

Findings:

  • The case suggests a potential link between trazodone use and the development of priapism.
  • Literature review indicates priapism is an uncommon pathology, particularly in the context of trazodone treatment.

  • This case represents an unusual presentation of priapism.

    • Implications:

    • Healthcare providers should be aware of the potential for trazodone to cause priapism.
    • Further investigation into the mechanisms of antidepressant-induced priapism is warranted.
    • This case underscores the importance of thorough patient history and medication review in managing priapism.
