Alternative to Remeron?
by ToneH, Jan 15, 2008 02:35PM
Hello.
First time asking a question, and I'd be grateful for a response. I'm an overweight individual, and I've recently been placed in the hospital for a suicide attempt. While I was there, the doctor put me on Ambien and then Trazodone for my problems when I try to sleep (those problems being racing thoughts, almost like a sort of mania). Eventually, he put me on Remeron, and it works beautifuly. However, I noticed that one of the side effects is increased appetite. Is there an alternative medication (other than the three mentioned above) that I can take that will help me sleep, but not cause more weight gain?
Thank you!
