...cause such fatigue and drowsiness? Why are they different than the psychostimulants in that regard, besides only affect DA and not NE (unless that is the reason, but i would not think it would be). What are the pharmacological &/or physiological reasons for their drowsiness effects? Zanyone know?
And especially, how long do these side effects last. i was thinking they were only present for awhile during the start of treatment and then gradually faded, but according to Ame Sans Vie (Michael?), the opposite is true. That's disappointing.
