Yes, Robert, indeed that WOULD be interesting...IF anyone other than me has attempted it, noticed a *possible* better reaction as I *may* have had (??), AND they have, then, continued taking it at night.
So far, the night thing is just one of my (now 4 in 1 month *on*, OR simply HAVING to be OFF the patch, and I'm a REAL trooper, BTW) experiments re: how I can possibly manage to handle Emsam, as it quite literally IS my last chance. (NO other ADs or combos are tolerable anymore due to GI; ECT doc/s retired)
Emsam has been highly unpredictable for me, and for the most part quite unpleasant, with anxiety increasing, a small bit of help ONLY for MDD, NOT to mention horrid constipation/ lower GI major upsets, requiring that I now have to - every 3rd day - increase to a full dosage of zelnorm, another expensive AND unpredictable drug, rather than the half dosage I've always gotten by with, when I've succumbed to taking zelnorm, yet again.
Also, ravenstorm, there is *some* nausea. I have dreaded having to tell you any of this GI stuff!
I realize my experiences with Emsam should be on the side-effects thread, but I'm just not up to explaining in any more depth at this time. Sorry all.
