> Same thing happened to me with Paxil, but I thought it was because I was switched to Luvox for no reason except the pDoc wanted to experiment he told me. He also put me on chloral hydrate at the same time for sleep. I was drinking beer for sleep prior to switch and had to stop drinking. Heard that chloral hydrate breaks down to acetyl alcohol in the liver so figured it acted like alcohol in my body. Any truth to this? Phillipa

The principle metabolite is trichloroethanol. It probably puts the same liver enzymes under stress as does ethanol itself. Definitely not a good combination, in any case, because of the depressant effects of both drugs. You might stop breathing on the combination, if the doses were high enough.
