The term "lifelong" refers to such sexual disorders of the present invention, which have been present since the onset of sexual functioning. The term "acquired" refers to such sexual disorders of the present invention which developed only after a period of normal sexual functioning. The ..generalized type" refers to such sexual disorders of the present invention wherein the disorder is not limited to certain types of stimulation, situations, or partners. The ..situational type" applies to such sexual disorders of the present invention wherein the disorder is limited to certain types of stimulation, situations, or partners. The subtype due to "psychological factors" applies when psychological factors are judged to have the major role in the onset, severity, exacerbation, or maintenance of the sexual disorder, and general medical conditions and substance play no role in the etiology of the sexual disorder. Finally the subtype due to "combined factors" applies when 1 ) psychological factors are judged to have a role in the onset, severity, exacerbation, or maintenance of the sexual disorder, and 2) a general medical condition or substance use is also judged to be contributory but is not sufficient to account for a sexual disorder (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition, Text Revision. Washington DC, American Psychiatric Association, 2000). The compounds of formula (I) and the compounds (l.a), (l.b), (l.c), (l.d), (l.e), (l.f), (l.g) and (l.h), can be used either as free base or in form of its pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts. The term ..acceptable acid addition salts includes both organic and inorganic acids such as maleic, citric, tartaric, methanesulphonic, acetic, benzoic, succinic, gluconic, isethionic, glycinic, lactic, malic, mucoic, glutamic, sulphamic and ascorbic acid; inorganic acids include hydrochloric, hydrobromic, nitric, sulfuric, or phosphoric acid, and mixtures thereof.
