In reply to SERZONE AND REMERON???, posted by Panic_Attack on March 6, 2002, at 20:34:35
serzone did squat for anxiety and sleep., made it worse, and experienced electical shocks, skin crawling feeling and nausea, at 100mg. at 50mg it was not bad, but as i uppedit, i felt fery weird. even when on remeron. I now read it may cause liver failure.
If you are looking for sleep meds, stick with one, remeron, or trazadone, although remeron is most potent sleep med due to histamine blockade, more than anyother med. Seroquel may be up there to due to dopamine blockade, and histamine blockade. acutally seroquel and remeron share similar properties. They both block d2 receptors, seroquel moresoe, block 5ht2a receptors, remeron moresoe, and histamine receptors, remeron so.
if yousuffer from anxiety and sleep disroder, these meds will help. my doc just added paxil to remeron to give me an added mood improvement. titration slowely.
Paxil is shown in the pdoc book to have the highest 5ht reuptake out of all the ssri's.im also on desipramine 25mg morning, xanax for axiety in the am and pm.
so what i have going here is 4 medications practically hitting numerous receptors sites.
First, desipramine is a high potent NE reuptake.
Second, xanax is a potent GABA binding medication, esp for panic and quick acting.
Third, we have paxil, a potent 5ht reuptake (seratonin)
Fourth we have remeron, a potent 5ht2a (seratonin) blockade, a potent histamine blockade, very slight dopamine blockade.I guess ill try this for a while and see how it works. titration of dosages may help via your doctor.
