I agree, rotating a benzo type med (Temazepam, Ambien) with an antihistamine/seretonin type med (Seroquel or Doxepin), two nights on one med, 2 nights on the other.
Having said that, there was a major study conducted in the BMJ in the mid 70's that showed nitrazepam kept its hypnotic activity for atleast 6 months, and the authors concluded that if people werent tolorant after 6 months, they were unlikely to become tolorant at all, so, a long term benzo type med would likely remain effective long term, though you might well become dependent
