In reply to Does Cogentin help with sleep?, posted by ihatedrugs on November 17, 2013, at 16:38:37
First of all, I agree with Nix. If this is akathisia, the cause should be removed.
Secondly, Cogentin does tend to help sleep, at least initially.
> My dr. prescribed Cogentin for Abilify-induced akathisia. I haven't taken it yet but was wondering if it would help me sleep. I haven't been able to sleep for a week even with 2 ambiens + 3mg klonopin. I can't just rough it out because the depression is too much to bear for so long without a break.
> However, I'm weary of taking Cogentin since for me is new and I even read reports of people hallucinating. I'm so scared of taking anything that would push me further down into the dark hole. Please suggestions.
