@sirronar Hello interesting as to why the wait for one year? I would ask about that dosage as if you are okay to wait a year your dosage sounds a bit high with no titrate. I was started with 1/2 tab 3 times per day for a week and then up to 1 tab 3 times per day which is usual starting dosage. I think your dosage should be started gradually. to get used to the med. AT my dosage I have no problems whatsoever with that sleeping side effect or any other ones. Good luck.
