Hello and welcome to the forum. Thank you for your question. Questions regarding medication are best discussed with your doctor as they prescribe the medication and know your particular situation. What is your specific issue with insomnia? Rozerem seems to be best used for those who don't fall asleep easily. Is that your situation? It works on melatonin and is not supposed to be habit forming which is a great benefit. https://www.medicinenet.com/rozerem/article.
d give up and trying it just one night. Give more time, if you are able to handle the side effects. For me, I do sometimes feel tired and with headache following day, but not always. Trade-off for me as I, like you, cannot sleep.
I tried Ambien, but was very spacey (more than normal :)) the next day. And would sleep walk (and talk, and eat) with Ambien. But if it works for you? Maybe Lunesta.
I was on Seroquel for a short time. That stuff would absolutely knock me out.
Isn't Rozerem very closely related to melatonin? I've tried melatonin and valerian for insomnia. Neither with much success. Surely there are other alternatives besides trazadone and rozerem. I would like to know what they are.
Doing so can cause major withdrawals and horrible side effects. I have a link that tells you all about seroquel. I do not reccomend you read it, as it will only scare you off it. I did not even look closely at the page. But I will leave it up to you. Blessings - Blu

Probably because I hate swallowing tablets and have the sollutab version and have never had any side effects at all from it. May be a different tablet you are on about. If so I am sorry in advance. Just the name in your heading made me think of remeron. I might be even spelling it wrong as we don't call it that over it.
Losartan is not known to have many side effects. I've been taking it for a few months with no problems.
Have you had any other medication changes? Do you take any statins for cholesterol issues?
I had partial thyroidectomy in 1978 with no thyroid meds prescribed afterward. I've had bad trouble with insomnia since then. I've been told I was hysterical and other forms of crazy in all these remaining years. The exception to all these hysteria dx is the psychiatrist I've been seeing since 1994. She has been working with me, trying to get a program of head meds to work. We've had some success, but not a whole lot.
Don’t take sleeping pills regularly. They have side effects and inconsistent benefits, particularly in older adults.
7.Practice relaxation techniques at bedtime including muscular relaxation, mental focusing, and breathing techniques.
8.Take an afternoon nap after a poor night’s sleep
9.Increase your exposure to early morning sunlight as soon as you wake up to establish a more consistent sleep rhythm.
10.Exercise by taking a brisk walk 3-6 hours before bedtime.
chronic insomnia with anxiety disorder. I take escitalopram in the morning. Can Rozerem replace Zaleplon?
The drug lists both insomnia and somnolescence as side effects. In other words, sleep disturbance!! Rather than sleep settling. The absolute last thing I need is to be kept awake and feel agitated and so on. It would drive me more nuts than I am.
Have been fairly at peace for some time now and risking a med like this sounds like a no brainer. I'd have to have no brain to say yes wouldn't I?
Appreciate your honesty and accuracy.
Can anyone let me know if Rozerem 8mg (RX sleep aid) and Prozac 20 mg (antidepressant) are safe to take with methadone (15mg daily) I am detoxing after 15 years on MMT and have slowly "tapered" my dose from 60mg daily to 15mg daily. I am having some insomnia & depression/antiety issues related to my husband being on the waiting list for a liver transplant. Just want to make sure i'm not gonna "croak" if I take the other meds.
Most of the side effects are dose related. Here is more information about the medication: http://www.drugs.com/topamax.html . Sometimes, dividing the dose into several doses throughout the day may help. Also taking the smallest dose you can take is best to avoid the side effects. Initially, many people have side effects, but after your body gets used to the med. it goes away (usually after a week or 2).
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.
These drugs are believed to possess similar abuse potentials. Ramelteon (Rozerem), works differently in the body to treat insomnia. It is not considered to be a controlled substance.
Zolpidem (Ambien) and eszopiclone (Lunesta) have been shown to reduce the time until sleep occurs and increase total sleep time. The sleep induced by them resembles natural sleep. Ramelteon (Rozerem) has shown to reduce the time until sleep occurs.
Hi, My name is Kevin. i have been suffering insomnia for about 2 years. Recently, i found that the reason i can't sleep is because i was worrying about not able to sleep.Sometime if i don't want to sleep, i slept without a problem. When i want to sleep i could never sleep quickly. i am constantly thinking about very trivial things. After i learned the cause of my insomnia, i tried to relax into sleep, however, sometime i felt sleep quickly.
