I know this topic has been raised before but I can't find any relevant posts....
I've been having trouble getting off to sleep since I started taking Effexor, and I understand taking benadryl at bedtime can help. I'm often lying awake till 4am or so, and then once asleep I sleep soooo long, not waking till noon some days! Though, I did that before the Effexor, so, hey...
Anyway I'll look in the local pharmacy tomorrow to see how much it costs - I think here in the UK it's pretty darn expensive... from memory, about £5 - £7 for only 12 tablets (that would be around $7-$10).
In the meantime, can anyone answer these for me...
* How much to take
* Whether I'd be likely to sleep even longer in the mornings !
* Could I become dependent on it?
* Is there anything else I can get over the counter in the Uk which would do as well, preferably cheaper?
* Should I just wait and talk to my pdoc with this when I see him in 2 weeks time?
and
* Can someone send me a plane ticket so I can go to WalMarts and buy a big tub of 100 for $4....? (j/k).
Cheers,
Kalyb xx
