There is a new sleep medicine out that I have a prescription for. It is a melatonin but evidentaly a little different than the over the counter type. Rozerem 8 mg tab. it is not considered a controlled drug. It will take a day or 3 before it works. I was told it was OK to talk an additional pill with it until it kicks in. Ambian CR does not work at all for me. Ambian is very short acting--like 2 or 3 hours.
I have a very bad time sleeping so Halcion, (Triazolam) has been my standby.
