From what I understand, low dose Paxil or Zoloft helps to manage the gut-brain mis-communication. I personally take low dose Paxil at dinnertime and sleep well. I have found no side-effects taking this at night. Some say taking this in the morning leaves them feeling drowsy during the day.

This is something that really should not alter the mind at all, but does seemingly work well where the serotonin re-uptake inhibitors are lacking in one's own body.

Do discuss this with your doctor and see what he/she has to say about prescribing such. You can also research these meds online to see what things they are prescribed for and a list of potential side-effects.

If you think such might be helpful for you, ask your doctor if he has a 7-10 day sample for you to try. Usually they do, samples provided by pharmaceutical companies through their reps.
