Does Anybody Know About Sleep Disorders When First Starting Mmt?
Posted by: Alan in Sleep Disorder, tags: About, Anybody, Disorders, Does, First, Know, Sleep, Starting, When
I started MMT almost a week ago and have not been able to sleep for more than 45min – 1hr at a time. I wake up all through the night and can’t go back to sleep for about 30min or so. Yesterday I did take a 1 and 1/2 hr nap. But that’s been about it. I am really really tired. Should this go away soon?

You are not stable your dose yet. Are they still increasing you say 5mg every other day? Once you reach your dose (everybody’s varies) that is one way you know is because of your sleep. That is one question my clinic always asked me when started was “How is your sleep?” As long as it was meed up they increased my dose until I reached 80mg and I was stable for a few weeks then I started hang trouble with my stomach again and they increased me to 85mg. This was the magic number for me but for some is much higher. My clinic doesn’t like to go much higher which goes against research but fortunately isn’t too much of a problem for me. So, Yes, it will get better. The best part for me was not waking up in withdrawal. What a bless! Good Luck!
