My doc suggested Seroquel when I told him Zoloft was making me apathetic and indifferent. No, they don't.
> > I took a phenothiazine called Histantil once as a sleeping aid, I don't know if that's the US name. It is chemically related to Thorazine although it is marketed as an anti-emetic. The generic product is called promethazine I think. Anyway. It knocked me out cold for 18 hours and I was depressed for 3 or for days after that. I hate these drugs. And I only took 1 pill of the smallest dose possible (25 mg). I can only nimagine what Thorazine must be like.

I guess an H-1 agonist (to counteract the H-1 blocking action of these drugs) would make a person miserable. Wouldn't it cause allergic-type reactions? Hmmmm...I wish there was a way....
