In reply to damn, increase in Parnate means no sleep, posted by Maxime on January 16, 2010, at 3:46:46

The same is happening to me. My sleep cycle is all off. I can't sleep even on a dose of 30 or 40 mg of Parnate. Then I finally sleep at 4 a.m. which means I get up at about 10, which means I take my Parnate at this hour, which is too late-- and causes insomnia the next night. I took Parnate for many years without this problem, and in somewhat higher doses...
Anyway, you are not alone, if that helps.I am trying to avoid taking any strong sleeping pills, but I usually wind up taking either 1 mg of Klonazapam or 2.5 of Valium, neither of which seems to help much anyway. When I was taking Vicodin that would help significantly, but i have decided that Vicoding is a drug that I want to avoid, so for the past 3 weeks, I have not been taking any Vicodin.
These past three days I have cut down to just 20 mg of Parnate and still here I am wide awake at 4 am.
