Benzodiazepine (BZD) receptor agonists don't work for everyone. It is not unusual for people with MAOI-induced insomnia to be resistant to these drugs. Ativan and Klonopin were not sufficient for me when I first began taking Parnate + TCA in combination.
What drugs would you recommend for BZD-resistant insomnia?
Dr. Ken Gillman is good, and I agree with much of he has to say. However, some of his views are not shared by other good doctors who also have websites, publish papers, and give lectures. It is difficult to know who to listen to.
