Goodness! That's pretty strong, this is the first case ive ever hearing Thorazine mentioned for insomnia. Get ready for some side effects, if im not mistaken. I dont know but it may cause depression since the blocking of dopamine terminals, but i dont know much so dont take this seriously.
Sandy i really do not recommend Thorazine, that would be the LAST option, and im talking after the barbiturates.
Before you ask your doctor about it, try Halcion like King Vultan said. IF that fails, ask your doc about Nembutal (pentobarbital) which is a potent barbiturate, it lasts for about 4 hours. Amytal (amobarbital) which is not as potent lasts for about 6 hours if you need something to keep you asleep longer, but its infamous for giving a morning hangover.But if your doctor approves thorazine, i guess just give it a try and i pray you will have low side effects.
Take Care...
