Effexor made me take naps in the day & wake repeatedly at night. I fiddled with the time I took it & ended up with an evening dose of 75 mg. The sleep interference was my biggest complaint. I'm off it now for a few days after 7 weeks of trial.
> Hi,

> I also take 2 mg of Klonopin in late evening/bedtime. I don't know if this is due to meds or not. I also take other meds for other conditions, but they don't usually cause sleepiness.
