It works well for me and I have been on it for two months...I have never felt better. The only thing was being so sleepy the first week or so.

Comment:
Great drug , have taken for about 1 year. I forgot to take night dosage and felt terrible , took it finally at 11:30Am when I realized that I had missed it. Now not sure how to get back on schedule. I take 150MG. Does anyone know how to get back on cycle safely?

Currently taking Luvox, and Ambien for OCD at bedtime. Also take Abilify in the morning. But continue to have difficulty sleeping at night. Does anyone have any suggestions? Does Luvox work better when taken in the morning?
