> Serzone doesn't have sexual side effects. I've been taking it for a couple years now. I can't use it as a sole med - it doesn't take care of my anxiety at all. I have to take it at night or I feel drowsy all day. Should mee your needs, I hope.

I haven't read the whole thread, but your comment about anxiety effectiveness caught my eye. One of Serzone's strong points is its efficacy and quickness in helping several forms of anxiety, especially GAD and depression-related anxieties. Also, I've read that at high doses (probably a min. of 600 mg.) it CAN cause sexual dysfunction, perhaps because that's when the serotonin reuptake properties really kick it.

I've been taking 450 mg./day of Serzone for several months (300 of it in the morning, plus anxiety-fighting Klonopin and wake/alertness-inducing Provigil), and have seen some sexual *enhancement* with minimal adverse effects.
