Hello everybody. Due to the fact that Effexor is causing some insomnia, i was wondering if I could take a sedative tricyclic at night to help me sleep. I know doctors prescribe a clearance period of at least four days when changing from tricyclics to effexor, but does that necessarily mean there is an adverse interaction?- especially with low doses (25 or 50mg)of the tricyclic (in this case amineptine)?
If anyone knows anything about the use or contraindication of these two meds I would greatly apreciate it *p.s in Australia we dont have Mirtazepine or trazodone so I can not use them for Effexor related insomnia)- thanks again *DAVE*.
