In reply to Can't sleep on Emsam, posted by former poster on April 4, 2014, at 18:08:21
> Is there a med that will induce sleep that can be taken with 6mg Emsam patch. I can't take anti-psychotics or lithium because I can't function. Benzos are not an option. Perhaps an anti seizure med with minimum blunting side effect? Any numbing will cancel out the AD effect of Emsam. Hope I get a response to this post as I am desperate.
How would Seroquel 25 mg affect you?
Remeron 15 mg?
Trazodone might work, but it can leave you feeling yucky the next day.
Neither Neurontin nor Lyrica ever made me sleepy. I would wait for more feedback on this, though.
Some people get a good effect from Gabitril. I didn't.
If your doctor is up for it, you can add the TCAs: amitriptyline, doxepin, or trimipramine.
