Well...as a former Luvox user, I say it has some more sedating qualities, but different than Paxil-type.(which seems to promote more of a 'sluggish' sedation.) I believe that Luvox increases melatonin transmission, and I think this is important, as new medications I noticed are in the 'pipeline' that act on melatonin. I'd say start low, and try a early-evening dose. Please report back how you made out!
Best,
Jay
