Last 10mg seroxat this morning, started the ven 37.5 a week ago and 75mg slow release ven tomorrow.
The reason I asked the question was I cannot eat until 12 ish, and the psych said to take it with food, the more the better, so i was going to take it after tea, about 6-7 pm. Does it make you tired and have you had any side effects with it, as it done anything for you, does it make you sleepy in the day.
This is all i will be taking along with valium and propanolol.

only side effect I have is a dry mouth and i don't mind that as it makes me drink water.
Caused sexual dysfuntion too for a while, but stick with it if this happens to you as it will come back in time.
i'm reducing to 75mg this week and feel fine. I was told to take it in the morning as it is slow release it wil help you during the day. Taking it at night would mean you were sleeping when it's in your blood stream and wouldn't get full benefits.x
