antipsychotic like Risperidon for Parnate insomna?

Posted by chinaboy on March 5, 2014, at 21:18:50

Can I take atypical antipsychotic like Risperidone, Seroquel for parnate induced insomnia?
Do you think Risperidone might compromise the antidepressant effect of Parnate, coz I've heard that Risperidone, Seroquel might cause depressrion by themselves.
PS: besides depression and low motivation ,I also have schzoid personality disorder.what antipsychotic
helps with that?

Yes you can.

They can, but in the doses you will need for sleep it won't matter much.

>I also have schzoid personality disorder.what antipsychotic helps with that?

Risperidone and Olanzapine have been the most studied.
