Fluoxetine + Cariprazine: Extreme Daytime Sleepiness but Poor Night Sleep — Normal?
25M here. Recently prescribed Fluoxetine 20 mg (Flunil) and Cariprazine 1.5 mg (Carispec) for health anxiety, overthinking, and occasional panic.
Still in the first week.
Main issue:
- Extreme daytime drowsiness (hard to function)
- But sleep at night feels off / disturbed
Is this normal in the beginning?
Anyone else faced this with these meds? Did it improve or require adjustment?
Would appreciate honest experiences.
