rozerem

Avatar f tn Hello! Which sleeping pill is stronger, Belsomra or Rozerem? I take 2 tablets of Belsomra at night for 20 mg plus 2 tablets of Donormil. Should I try Rozerem?
603015 tn?1329862973 All sleep aids(by rx) are addictive (except possibly rozerem as mentioned??) these sleep aids are sedatives and you surely do build up a resistance to them in a very short period. I've had to use zoplicone by rx for many years due to shift work in nursing homes. it was necessary for me to function. However I managed the resistance by only using when absolutely necessary...and even if it meant no sleep on days off I knew I had to follow this advice.
Avatar f tn Why do doctors tell us things are not addictive but then you read online that everyone is struggling with being addicted to them? I was prescribed Rozerem and given the generic. I'm terrified to take it. It is to help me sleep but is also a anti-depressant. I just don't understand. The pharmacist even said it is not addictive.
Avatar m tn One good option you could ask your psychiatrist about is the medication Rozerem which works to adjust the sleep cycle and is safe and non addictive. There are other options as well but that's one worth asking about. Also it might be a simple matter of timing. If a medication keeps you awake at night you could ask your psychiatrist if you could take it earlier in the day and see if that helps. Discuss all this with them and see what they say.
Avatar f tn Nurse presc. Rozerem for my sleep problem. Taking xanax 4 times daily .25mg. Has anyone taken this sleep aid with success or was it bad? Any replies good or bad PLEASE! She pres.
Avatar f tn One medication you might want to ask your psychiatrist about is Rozerem which is an FDA approved sleep aide that works like melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle and is safe and non addictive.
994257 tn?1266242692 I know since I had trouble falling asleep in addition to sleep disruption I was prescribed the sleep aide Rozerem which is non addictive and actually adjusts the sleep cycle like melatonin but I don't know if it would be prescribed for sleep disruption but you could ask your psychiatrist.
741315 tn?1232458427 Ambien is not meant for everyday use as a sleeping aide as it can be addictive. Lunesta or Rozerem are two better choices. Rozerem works in the same manner as Melatonin and actually adjusts the sleep cycle. Those are some ideas to speak to your psychiatrist about.
Avatar n tn Ambien does have that potential side effect and people can build up a tolerance to it. You could ask your psychiatrist about Rozerem which is an FDA approved sleep aide that is safe and non addictive and works like melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle.
1116728 tn?1276797124 The potential of addiction can occur with benzodiazepenes (that class of anti-anxiety medication) but if taken responsibly usually is not a problem. If you are concerned though Rozerem is one FDA approved option that is safe and non addictive and works like melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle. You could ask them if that's a possibility but it would be within their judgment of course.
Avatar m tn There are safer sleeping medications such as Lunesta and Rozerem. My concern about Trazadone is the fact that it can cause tardive dyskinesia. If you are not taking it for depression but as a sleep aid you might want to ask your psychiatrist about the two I mentioned. This link is from a psychiatric journal and lists all known medications that can cause tardive dyskinesia and Trazadone is clearly listed as one.
1021912 tn?1251693068 One new option as regards sleep aides that is not addictive is the FDA approved medication Rozerem that works like melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle. You could ask about that.
574118 tn?1305135284 There are some FDA approved sleep aides that can be of help such as Rozerem (that one is non addictive and works similarly to melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle). Tradazone can be helpful for some people but it does have somewhat of a potential to cause tardive dyskinesia. Its better to go with an FDA approved medication but if you find information on supplements that are in clinical study and could be of help print out the information and discuss it with your psychiatrist.
1088646 tn?1256949923 Ambien is generally meant for short term use. The FDA approved sleep aide Rozerem works exactly like melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle and is safe and non addictive and can be taken every day. You could ask your psychiatrist about that.
985832 tn?1249126599 If you have disrupted sleep you might want to undergo a sleep test.
Avatar f tn Please don't do anything without speaking to your psychiatrist. Lamictal is generally a very tolerable mood stabilizer. If you find you can't tolerate it speak to your psychiatrist. There are many viable options listed on the links page. As regarding mood stabilizers if you stop them the moodswings and full symptoms of mania and depression return. As for Ambien if you can't tolerate it you can ask your psychiatrist about changing it.
Avatar m tn Has anyone tried taking rozerem to help sleep when tapering? I tried Abien a few years ago and it wired me all night. Last night, I took ,1 clonidine and 2 soma and I just knew that would put me to sleep and all it did was give me a big buzz and i was wired for a few hours. I know I just need some sleep!
736314 tn?1276884623 See if that keeps happenning and if so speak to your psychiatrist. Lunesta is non addictive but being related to benzodiazepenes after a while it can lose its effectiveness. You could also ask about Rozerem which being related to melatonin adjusts the sleep cycle and has less of a potential to loss effectiveness over time. And also there are some general books and ideas on sleep hygeine that can help you establish regular sleeping habits that will help as well.
737831 tn?1232095919 Rozerem works in the same exact manner as melatonin and actually adjusts the sleep cycle and is non addictive. Those are two worth inquiring about, Rozerem especially. But sometimes untreated bipolar or depression causes insomnia on its own so have that issue addressed first.
Avatar n tn She also has a sleep disorder that we finally saw a pediatric sleep specialist for-- now she uses a blue spectrum light every morning. Occasionally, we use Rozerem 8mg (prescribed by the peds sleep specialist) --but only occasionally when we are unable to do her light therapy. Is there any connection between sleep disorders & early adrenarche? And is this adrenarche when it is only her axillary area involved?
Avatar n tn Anyone who has a sleep disorder can ask their psychiatrist about Rozerem. It is a sleep aide that is an FDA approved medication that works clinically exactly like melatonin and works to adjust the sleep cycle. It is safe and completely non addictive. Depression on its own causes insomnia so the anti-depressents should treat that but with sleep disorders that's a very safe option and can be taken short term or long term. A person can ask their psychiatrist or doctor about it.
Avatar m tn One known option for sleep (although it has no mood stabilization properties) is the medication Rozerem that works to adjust the sleep cycle and is safe and non addictive. You could ask your psychiatrist about this as well.
Avatar f tn There are other options as regards sleep aides. One option is Rozerem which is an FDA approved medication that is safe and non addictive and works like melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle. That is one option you could ask your psychiatrist about.
1673169 tn?1316541930 Yes for me it took some time to work although each person responds differently to each medication or treatment but it might be worthwhile to ask your psychiatrist about Rozerem which is an FDA approved medication that works exactly like melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle and is safe and non addictive. Also it has an exact dose and quantity unlike any natural remedy so if they considered it a possibility could find out what dose would work right for you.
Avatar m tn t induce at night but feel sleepy at day time thus disturbing my working days.I want to start with Rozerem for inducing sleep.I wish to take this medication for a month or two and discontinue and get my sleep naturally as usual.Can the sleep disorder rebound after discontinuation? I've also been taking sertraline since many years,could these two drugs interact,if yes what are the effects?
Avatar m tn If its taken as a sleep aid and they find it too sedating Rozerem is one option that works like melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle and is safe and non addictive and from what I am aware of and remember of it will wear off by the next day but each person responds differently to each medication.
Avatar f tn You could try asking about Rozerem which is an FDA approved medication that works in a similar way to melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle and is non addictive. Some people find it helpful although each person responds differently to each medication.
Avatar n tn You might want to ask your psychiatrist about Rozerem an FDA approved medication that works like melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle and is safe and non addictive. The two newly approved antipsychotics Saphris and Fanapt work like Abilify in that they are serotonin dopamine antagonists (a slightly different class of antipsychotics than the ones before) so they might all have activating properties but for full information go to the medication website and of course speak to your psychiatrist.
