I'm reading the PDR (Physician's Desk Reference) which is the Bible regarding prescription medication of any kind. If you read the side effects associated with SSRIs, it will scare the hell out of you.
I got a trial pack of Serzone from my doc and took 50 mg last night. Big mistake. I woke up at 3:00 AM after about 4 hours sleep and couldn't go back to sleep.
Side effects from 50 mgs: anxiety, insomnia, and an allergic reaction. I don't know how long it takes for this stuff to clear out of your body but it is now 19 hours since I took the 50 mgs and I feel worse than I've felt in since the worst days of my anxiety 2 weeks ago.
Conclusion: the cure is worse than the disease.
