It felt quite promising early on in treatment, and I often felt it was the best medication I've tried that is classified as an antidepressant. Now, I'm at 150 mg/day and it's been a long time, and I'm not really sure it is doing anything any more. The most promising signs came early in treatment, at very low doses. It did not get better with dose increments, but I'm not sure it got worse either.

Sounds similar to doxepin. But that stuff is thr strongest H1 antagonist available, I believe. I have NEVER had such a strong hangover effect as when I tried doxepin.

My late Dad had huge number of allergies, and really responded well to doxepin. He was on 300mg at bedtime, at one point. I DO respond well to anti-histamines, but doxepin, the hangover is just WOW!!
