Safe drugs to take long term for sleeping

Question:

_TJ_ schreef: Hey TJ, where do you live in Europe? Doxepin is still available in Holland (where I live). I just checked. Hi Philip.  I am told this one is gone in the UK and Ireland :-(

Hop over to the continent for a nice supply ;-)   tried *melatonin*? I never tried it.  Do you get it in pharmacies or health-food shops?

In the US it’s available OTC but here you need a prescription. I suppose you’ll need one i the UK as ell, I’m not sure. Philip — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm

Here are some I have encountered… Ambien (I use this some nights – makes me ill) Remeron (tried this – bad side-effects) Seroquel (bad side-effects) Paxil (LOL, I don’t want to sleep all day!) Doxepin (no longer available in Europe) Trazodone (never tried it) Halcion (never tried it) Elavil (do they even still make this?) Can anyone recommend a sleepy med I could take safely in the long term? Many thanks :-) — _TJ_ <TJ_IREL at YAHOO dot IE — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm

Umm, that liquidy white stuff that come in cartons or glass bottles. Just make sure to heat it up :) Jackie Cow juice is not medicine! Please don’t make me take to the wooden mallet again in desperation… :-P

It is just as medicinal as turkey which is supposed to make you sleepy. — Ron P Member of the invisible generation — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm

Trazodone is good for inducing sleep and keeping you asleep. Also it will augment (potentiate) the antianxiety and antidepressant effects of the Lexapro you are taking for anxiety and depression. Chip — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm

Thanks Chip!  I have a feeling there is some Trazodone in my future :-) — _TJ_ <TJ_IREL at YAHOO dot IE — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm
