Now I have headache and drowsiness. Should I decrease the Celexa or increase the Remeron. I have heard that the Remeron causes fewer sedation in higher doses!?

I now take Celexa and Neurontin. The Neurontin has a calming effect on me, and helps me to go to sleep but does not make me feel overly tired. It's a pleasant feeling, really. I take 300 mg. 4 times a day.


Hi bissie66
How much (Celexa and Remeron) did you take of this combo bissie66?
