I'm experimenting with it, yes. But not as low as that, dose wise. Maybe I should try that. I've been at around 20 mg.

I think it is an excellent augment, when compared to e.g. trazadone. It's just getting the dose right that's tough, as it has very powerful histamine receptor affinity. That's a very sensitive receptor to play around with.

To say it is void of side effects might be a little much. But then again, I get strong side effects all the time.
