Sherry-

I take 50mg at bedtime to help me
sleep. Maybe I shouldn't be. Let's
see what Doc Greg has to say. I've tried
Prozac which is supposed to be good for clusters
but it made me feel like I had consumed 10
or 12 cups of coffee.

The literature is very confusing to me//

The mechanism of Desyrel's (Trazodone)
antidepressant action in man is not
fully understood. In animals, Desyrel
selectively inhibits serotonin uptake by
brain synaptosomes and potenates the
behavorial changes induced by the serotonin
precurser , 5hydroxytryptophan. Isn't 5-HT
supposed to be good? Help us out here Doc.
Thanks!!

Phil
