In reply to AD used for sleep?, posted by rjlockhart37 on July 3, 2020, at 17:13:45
Hey RJ,
SSRIs do increase serotonin, but this doesn't always improve sleep. Sleep disturbance is common on SSRIs.
You can combine trazodone, doxepin, or Remeron with fluoxetine. Serotonin syndrome would be very rare. Either of these three is often added to an SSRI to improve sleep. As mentioned, trimipramine is another option.
