A member asked:
Is it likely that insomnia due to strattera (60mg) will subside after a time? i am taking lunesta (eszopiclone) for sleep, but am still experiencing restlessness.

This is a question: for a psychiatrist. Insomnia and agitation is a common side effect of a lot of meds, including Strattera. Lunesta (eszopiclone) probably masks some of that, but you need someone well-schooled in meds to figure this our. There are hundreds of possible causes of insomnia. Figure out which ones are yours.

INSOMNIA: Getting good night's sleep is important for physical & mental health. Insomnia might be due to several reasons. Have a physical exam to rule out illness. If cleared consult with a Clinical Psychologist with expertise in multiple types of psychotherapy that helps you benefit from medication prescribed by a Psychiatrist. If uncomfortable with your Dr. seek 2nd opinion. You may need a sleep study.
