Advice & Tips
If I take one I am okay but if I take two with my amitriptyline then I end up with bad restless legs at night and can't sleep. Seems to help with my fibromaylgia pain some.

Advice & Tips
I was actually taking 300mg of this med when I stopped it last week, b/c it didn't seem to be working anymore. I have been on this med for quite some time so I guess I built up a tolerance to it.

Advice & Tips
Made me ravenous - within 20 minutes i scavenging for food - would fill the belly and then sleep like a baby. Hit or Miss sometimes. Kept having to increase dosage - up to 100mg to sleep. Talked with Dr. Rez and decided to taper down and use my Flexeril more as a sleeping aid when needed.

Advice & Tips
I still have problems falling asleep even with taking this but I found it helps if you go to bed immediately after taking it, for me there is a small window for when I start to feel it working and if I'm not already in bed ready to fall asleep it's not effective.

Advice & Tips
Dosages may have to increase over the years. I started with 100mg sometime in the last few years, then to 200mg, and most recently to be the 200mg and 1 more if I need it. Many people can't handle 100mg. Some claim to feel "hung over" or "out-of-it" in the a.m.
