Sleep combo

Posted by jlo820 on July 12, 2003, at 12:13:42

Just got off the phone with my doc...have been having sleep problems...none for the last two nights. He put me on:

.25 mg Halcion (or 20 mg Valium, which ever I prefer)
4 mg Klonopin
300 mg Trazodone

I think I will sleep pretty well. If I still can't sleep, he said to take the Halcion (or Valium) every hour.

Also, I am on 10 mg Lexapro, he told me to go to 20 mg.

Just thought I would pass this along.

Just a really coincindental piece of info.......my psychiatrist found a study in a journal regarding using .25mg of Halcion and phenobarbitol TOGETHER for sleep. Works great. She used that on me for sleep in the hospital and it worked wonders. However, she also told me about the addiction properties of the pheno and the danger of Halcion over long term.


Just thought I'd pass this along.........
Good luck
