In reply to Larry Hoover- Sleep aids?, posted by Budgie on August 19, 2003, at 22:11:55
I'm not Lar but if I can help...................
since starting Lexapro~~~I had horrible insomnia-it has been hugely reduced by taking Unisom Sleep Gels Maximum Strength-that some dear person here suggested ;) to me and it works like a top-I sleep like a baby lately~~and have absolutely no side effects the next day~~~it is a blessing!
The only ingredient is Diphenhydramine HCI 50mg. I can't take many herbs because of IBS, but many good herbs work also I hear from the posts above:-)
Best,
gal
