OK, I'm on Parnate which is the culprit in keeping me awake (plus a little help from the Mirapex)
Last night (over 6 hours trying to fall asleep):
approx. 30mg seroquel
8mg perphenazine
3mg lunesta
4-25mg benadryl
8mg ativan
50mg nortriptyline
12.5mg ambien CR
I finally fell asleep and slept 3 hoursSome notes...
I won't normally be able to take the lunesta and ambien together because my insurance won't cover both at once and the pharmacy won't fill both at once.
I don't think the seroquel is working at all. Drugs stop working when I go off them and then try to go back on them-- I did this with the seroquel I've tried the seroquel at high doses (300mg) and low doses (approx 30mg)
Perphenazine makes me depressed, so I can't take more than 8mg. I don't want to take any at all
I take the ativan 2mg at a time every hour
I took the benadryl 4 hours apart
THIS IS RIDICULOUS!
Does anyone have ANY suggestions of what can be taken with Parnate and nortriptyline for sleep other than what I'm already taking? I would like to get off the seroquel and especially the perphenazine!
