Klonopin is known to have a serotonergic effect. I don’t know if it ends up pushing down the DA like the SSRI’s do? It might and you may be correcting it with the other meds.
Modafinil(Provigil) gave me a really strange experience. I took it in the morning and an hour later I was nodding off and slept for a few hours. Just the opposite of what I expected. Later I learned it should not have an effect for a week or two.
I’m taking a low dose of Dex right now (15mg/day), but I’m worried about the roller coaster effects. I feel pretty lousy by about 4PM. I’m wondering if the Modafinil might help with that.
My biggest problem when taking the Dex is I fall asleep at night, but then I wake up at 3 or 4 in the morning and can't get back to sleep. Anyone else taking Dex have/had this problem?
Did you ever try Dex by itself? Can you compare the difference taking the combo?
