I was on Nozinan for insomnia. I only used it for about a week. My pdoc allowed me to titrate it as I felt. The pills came in 2mg size, and she said that she had some patients taking as much as 1 gram!!! She said that I could keep going up on my own without fear of overdosing.
I think I made it to about 18mg before I stopped due to tachycardia. It just made my heart race too fast. And it never helped me to fall asleep or to stay asleep.
I would be leery of any antipsychotics due to the fact of TD. There must be better sleeping aids than antipsychotics.
So far, I have tried without success:
Clonazipam
Ativan
Nozinan
Zopiclone
TrazadoneI am going to try Remeron next. It probably is my last attempt before I pretty much give up on being able to sleep!
