Suggest Medications To Aid Good Sleep While Having Depression
I have depression that is brought on by overstress and anticipating that stressful situations will turn catastrophic ! I am on venlavaxine ER, 150mg, once per day. I m not getting hardly any sleep at night. Is there anything that could help me get a full night of sleep ? Thanks !
As per my clinical experience, as there is already venlavaxine ER 150mg is going on, addition of melatonin (3 mg) at night would be best option to get circardian rhythm of disturbed sleep pattern. Additional deep breathing exercises, YOGA and meditations will help a lot for the issue.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
