> I don't know how long you persisted with Parnate, but when I took it I found the insomnia and afternoon fatigue (actually more like narcolepsy in my case - a very abrupt plunge into extreme sleepiness) disappeared after about a month. Suddenly one night I was able to fall asleep and the next day I had no problem come mid afternoon. From that point on, I had no side effect problems at all. If it weren't for persistent sinus problems that necessitate frequent decongestant use, I'd be on Parnate today (presuming it didn't poop out at some point).
