I've posted in a few other threads about my inability to sleep while on Emsam. I really need help with this and sexual dysfunction. I can find virtually no information about SD in women on Emsam. My pdoc is working with me on the sleep issues but says there may be no help for the sexual dysfunction. As of yesterday, my meds are-
6 mg Emsam patch
2 mg Klonopin at bedtime to help me sleep(I'll add that I also have PLMD)
12.5 Ambien CR at bedtime
.50 Klonopin for anxiety as needed
25-100 mg Vistaril for anxiety as needed
I only sleep about 4 hours a night. I take my meds and fall asleep right away but after 4 hours I toss and turn for 2 hours and then I'm awake for good. I'm starting to fall asleep at inapporpriate times (during the day). I'm so tired but can't sleep- it's so frustrating! I'd also like any information anyone has about female sexual dysfunction while on Emsam. This is so embarrassing but I can't find any inforomation anyhwere and my pdoc wasn't much help. Thanks for any help.Kelly Jo
