Thanks Zen and Juliana. I do not know alot about Serequel; I didn't realise how sedating it is. I am sick of trying to convince medical ppl that I am TRULY sedated by such a small dose- when I was took a 'non-drowsy' antihistamine I went home early from work to sleep it off, and when they gave me 3x the 'normal' dose of Maxalon to up my milk production- when breastfeeding- I only took 2 doses and literally slept for 24hrs straight. Luckily it was while my daughter was in hospital; the staff became so concerned they ended up looking after me as well as my daughter but even after that they couldn't find any literature to support my 'theory' that it was the maxalon that had sedated me so didn't believe me (altho they stopped it). I'm off to look up Celexa and see what it is...tks again

Ahhh... celexa=citalopram=ciprimil... I was on that for a few years until the max dose was doing nothing for me and I was put onto all my new meds. I can ask my pdoc about changing to that instead of serequel but he does not believe anything else will be as effective for me...
