I'm on fluoxetine 40 mg and risperidone 0.5 mg for existential OCD. 90 percent better now but the main issue is I can't sleep with the addition of risperidone 0.5 mg, any option of drugs that can be used with risperidone for sleep onset? that I can discuss with my doc. I don't want to change risperidone as it's helping with the Obsessions very well. thanks
I can help and guide you all
Discuss1: melatonin 2-5 mg at bed time 2: Trazodone 25- 100 mg at bedtime. 3: mirtazapine 7.5 mg -15 mg 4: doxepin 3-6 mg
