Anyone else get a buzz off of bac?

-P.

Hi Phoenix,

Sometimes I do but most of the time I don't. It's pretty strange as I haven't figured out any pattern as to when I'll get a bac buzz and when I won't. As a side note, I'm not a huge fan of the buzz I get b/c it usually coincides with me being pretty out of it and ditzy...

Phoenix,

Why do you take 10 mg in the middle of the night? I find that I wake up around 1 or 2 AM and then cannot sleep. Does it help you fall asleep? Does anyone else have this insomnia problem and if so, how do you deal with it?
Thanks.

I have not posted in a while. I started bac and then had to stop. I am now titrating up slowly but have major somnolence problems. I am going to take it slower and hopefully it will work. As a side, I started taking nal Dec 1. So I am doing both. I know LoOp thinks they act synergystically. I don't know about that, but since I am having such trouble with the bac I thought I would get a head start on the nal program in case I have to abandon the bac regimen.

Thanks for everyone's input on all of these threads. I plan on contributing a lot now to keep everyone up to date on bac and nal combination.

It has seemed to help me to take bac when I wake up in the middle of the night. What do you have to lose (besides $0.27)?

Hey all!

Just an update, since I got a different brand of bac from a different pharmacy it is much stronger, I can only handle about maybe 120 mg/day divided up of course, just took 30 mg and feel a dire need for a nap, but have tons of errands to run while in town.... Don't want a replay of what happened toTip, crashing car etc..... Am maybe going to blow off the errands?!?!

Lots of luck guys!!! MA

NC - I take it in the middle of the night so as to keep a steady stream of it in my body.
And YES it helps me get to sleep, tho I have never had a problem sleeping. I am very good at it! LOL! I have had the most deep, satisfying sleep of my life on Bac.

Also, I try to not have to take 4 at a time during the day and taking 10-20mg at night gives me a jump on my daily dose.

I am at 160 right now and here is how I dose:

20mg at 2:00am (or thereabouts)
30mg at 6:00am
20mg at 10:00 am
30 mg at 2:00pm
40mg at 4:30pm
20mg before bed (usually around 9:00pm)
