What was in it, and why can't we get it any more ## Hello, Aldine! I'm sorry, but I can't find any information on this. Do you know what country it was from? That may help me to locate the specifics. ## Verwon, thanks for answering. This was mostly trying to satisfy my curiosity. It was definitely a U.S. product and is no longer on the shelves. I thought the ingredients might be under a different name, or banned. I discovered by accident that it was a cure for hangover. I don't get hangovers any more, too old to drink like that, but was just wondering why it isn't sold anymore.

I am prescribed lortab 10 every 4 hours as needed, soma 350 mg 1 every 4 hours as needed, 15 mg of ambien each night. I am sleepless n Alabama and need to desperately find a safe way to get off this medication. I have no insurance.....please help. ## If you're simply looking for a powerful sleep aid to deal with insomnia, I'd highly recommend considering medical marijuana (that is of an indica variety). It may also be of great benefit to any emotional pain you might be dealing with when it comes to withdrawing off those medications. I'm not aware of the legality of cannabis in Alabama, but for someone with no insurance, it's something you can easily grow for personal use at very little cost. Have you talked to your doctor about a safe way to taper off?

Hi, I am long time anxiety patient - i've been on paxil, buspar, lexapro, zanaflex, remrom, flexiril, tricyciclants, trazodone - you name it. Also, with this I have had bad insomnia. I will not sleep for nights at a time, and it is affecting my work as well as my social life. I have tried (for sleep) Lunesta 2-4mg, Ambien 20mg, Sonata 40mg, and Prosom 2mg. I also aso tried restriol. For anxiety I have been on Ativan, Valium, Klonopin, and Versed. At the time, none of the night medicines work, I will even combine them. My anxiety (which is so common in my family) keeps me up. The problem is, they tend to either prescribe one (sleep medicine) or the other (anxiety). I have insurance, and would be willing to see a doctor. MY GAD is so awful lately, it's maybe Er TIME. So, does anyo...

## I've been taking this pill which i was told would help me sleep. They're Trazodone HCL 50mg tabs. It says on the bottle that it's for insomnia. Is this a sleeping pill and what does it do? I sleep 10-12 hours and I only take 1/2 the tablet. ## The thing about trazadone is it is actually an antidepressant,but only in high doses built up over a period of time(this level must be maintaind to be theraputic).But one of the side effects is extreme drowsiness,but if taken regularly your tolerencn will build up.Mine builds up after a period of time and I have to stop taking it for 6 months in order for it to b effective for me.But overall it does its job for sleep,I have been taking it for 5 years ## Just like the trance song, I can't get no sleep. That is how I feel every ni...

My problem is my shoulder and neck pain, but in 2007 I had a panic attack where I used xanax and cipralax tablets. When I use Dulan i feel well but then I forget one week and start 20mg after two weeks. I go my orthopaedic Dr in karachi he said u start again, so I started but sometimes I don't face any tension and I'm very confused. One day I took no tablets then felt pain in my head and weakness.

Last 8 years have been fighting constant pain unless I can sleep. After many, many, many medicines for pain, I was prescribed percoset. I did not have side effects with this until my doctor in Richmond had bad surgery, retired and of course no longer practices. I actually was able to speak with him and he listened. I have been on a 7 month journey to find a comparable doctor.....closer to home would be nice. A quality of life is not to be taken lightly. No doing the activities that others take as "normal" is brutal sometimes.......no travel, no movies AND dinner, and nothing longer than 3 hours. My last experience with a pain management doctor closer to home proved to be something I have never experience before and I started at 21 with colon cancer (has nothing to do with chronic p

I am a student and want to get rid of my need for sleep so that I may study for the whole night.....what medicine should I use??? ## There is nothing that is going to be safe to use on a long-term basis, so you do not have to sleep at all while attending school. Sleep is essential to your body and cannot be tossed away that easily, without suffering severe ill health effects. That said, I do not know what country you are in, so I also have no idea what is available for you. Have you thought of just trying some caffeine? ## Actually I'm from pakistan and I've been using caffeine for the last 7 years. Now it has no effect on me, so I need something better immediately.. :( ## Please tell me the name of some of the best anti-sleeping drugs. I am a student from Pakistan.
