Dear Ginnie

if you are not sleeping that is really not good. i would call your doctor first thing monday and let him know this is happening, and tell him how long it has been going on (you didn't say in your post).

these side effects can be temporary, and if you started at 50 mg it might take a couple of weeks getting used to but i would not expect sx to go beyond that. i would call on monday and not wait.

secondly and importantly:

if you experience any of the following -
-excessive sweating,
-flushing,
-feeling overheated or fever,
-excessive musculoskeletal rigidity

please go to ER or an urgent care clinic. these sx could indicate Serotonin Syndrome which is a medical emergency.
