Sleeping aids?

I have struggled with insomnia for years. I have tried taking OTC medicines such as Benadryl, melatonin, cough syrup, etc. I have also been prescribed Ambien, Ambien CR, Rozerem, Lunesta, Valium, and I am currently taking Tizanidine. None of which have helped me in the least. I see no effect from the medicines.

I have also changed my diet, exercised more, taken the television out of my bedroom… etc. Nothing so far has helped.

Does anyone have any suggestions for medications that have helped you that I could ask my doctor about? I’m desperate… anything will help.

Thank you =)

I was on ambien cr 12.5 until I was sent to the hospital for hallucinate for 2 weeks during my sleep. Know all my doctors is not willing to put me back on the medication or try any other sleep aids cause they don’t want a repeat of me going to the hospital but their gotta be something that will not hallucinate me?

Okay I have two big problems with my insomnia. It’s falling asleep, and staying asleep. The doc gave me some Rozerem samples and it didn’t help me that much. Which sleeping pills have helped you the most? I’ve been considering Ambien CR, but does it help you fall asleep quickly, along with helping you stay asleep? And does Lunesta have the same Short Term Amnesia side affects as Ambien?

My father was taking one or the other sleeping pill and also drinking. falling, not remember, and mood changes happened. Once he parked the car into the garage and forgot to shut it off till the next day. The doctor did nothing to stop this. I called several times, this past 2 months. One night he fell once again and not knowning where he was. He also said he hit his head after getting him back to bed. He died that night and the doctor says he was old and had health problems. I do not believe this. This is not why he died. Taking Ambien CR or Rozerem is pretty powerful sleeping pills. And having a doctor who knows his patient is also a heavy drinker should have his license pulled. Has anyone dealt with either of those two sleeping pills? I need help. Thank You

I am 33 Weeks pregnant and my midwife gave me Ambien CR to help me sleep. My back hurts so bad that I have not slept good at all. I am to the point where I get sick at work from being so tired. Has anyone had good results taking this while pregnant?

Problems sleeping and staying asleep?




I have problems sleeping due to past traumatic events. I can’t fall asleep easily and when I do fall asleep, I wake up multiple times. I usually take Ambien CR, but I don’t have any more for a few days due to pharmacy mix-ups.
Any advice to help me fall asleep and stay asleep without my medication?
Thank you!

taking ambien cr has caused me to gain weight. so i decided to quit. how long/difficult is it to lose that weight?

I’ve been on ambien for months – i tried ambien cr but couldn’t stay asleep – this is the first time that i’ve been wide awake after taking a regular ambien – does anyone know if it’s safe to take another. I know i could call my dr. or a pharmacist but it’s too late at night to do that.
I’d like to hear from anyone that has taken 2 before in one 24 hour period?

I was on Lunesta for a short period and it worked great for my sleeping problems but my doctor today put me on Ambien CR. I was just wondering if there were any major differences. I know that Lunesta put me at ease before bed, relaxed me enough to fall asleep. I am worried the Ambien will be a waste.
Anyone have any insight? Thanks!!

It doesn’t help me and I was wondering if it would be safe to take 2?
I take 5 mg and its not the Ambien CR
I’ve tried just about all the sleep medicines that are available, prescription and over the counter.

ambien cr helps improve your sleep?




i was just wondering if ambien cr disrupts normal sleep cycles. it says its safer than (ex: xanax,valium, etc) in reserving REM sleep. is this true? it has no eefect on any stages of sleep and if so why?
