Did you have to keep on increasing the dose to maintain its hypnotic effect? And, if you wanted to quit taking it for sleep now, would you have discontinuation symptoms? What I'm really looking to find out is, if this drug can be a viable sleep enhancer without all the usual problems such as addiction, that come with sleep medication.
