Insomnia

Posted by JohnnyBLinux on July 13, 2008, at 2:43:42

Hi fellow babblers, I was wondering if I could get your suggestions on a problem. I've been a member of this forum for many years, but I don't often post.
I have depression and adult ADD. Medications prescribed: Lexapro 10mg (added recently, 1 mongh ago), Ritalin 20mg, and Ambien 10mg.
The problem: I've been experiencing insomnia, even with Ambien 10mg taken just before bedtime. It takes me many hours to fall asleep. Is there a different sleeping medication that my pdoc can prescribe which would help, or can he increase the dosage of Ambien? I won't take Seroquel because that's heavy duty stuff. I'm interested to hear about anyone's suggestions or advice. Thanks a lot.
