You can increase to 100 mgs or even 200 mgs if you don't notice a sweating side-effect.

Some find a complex carb or protein snack (150 to 200 calories) before bed helps with sleep. I have a slice of cheese and 4 crackers and 20 minutes later, I'm out.
Thanks Mark. Last night the dreams returned and I'm in a fog this morning. Do you have any experience with SSRI that you'd be willing to share?
