Rozerem (ramelteon): People are quick to judge this medication. I have found that it does indeed make me sleep. However, I still wake up at my usual time at about 3-4 in the morning. This medication is really good for helping you fall asleep but not keeping you asleep.

Rozerem (ramelteon): This is the only sleep medicine I would give a "10" to the ones I have tried. This is because it worked so well and essentially had no significant side effects.

Rozerem (ramelteon): I HAVE JUST STARTED ON ROSERUM AND FIND I STILL WAKE UP SEVERAL TIMES A NIGHT, HOWEVER, I SLEEP HARD IN BETWEEN WAKING UP. I SLEPT VERY LIGHT AND ALMOST CONSIOUSLY BEFORE TAKING IT. SO, I AM HAPPY WITH IT, BEST OF ALL, IT IS NOT AN ADDICTIVE DRUG OR NARCOTIC! THANK GOD FOR SOMETHING THAT HELPS BETTER THAN NOTHING AND NOT ADDICTIVE.

ramelteon: I took this for one week. It did not help me get to sleep at all. On the first night I was awake ALL NIGHT LONG. Second night I finally fell asleep at 3am. I had to start back on Seroquel to get to sleep at all. I have stopped taking Rozerem because by the 6th night I had an AWFUL headache. Tonight is night two without Rozerem and I am hoping that by the time I wake up tomorrow it will be out of my system and the headache will be gone.

Rozerem (ramelteon): I tried Rozerem upon Doctors request. First night I was not sure if it worked or not. The next day I took a nap around 2pm and felt horrible after waking. Headache and utter exhaustion. Tried for the second night and was unable to sleep until 4am. It gave me a feeling of anxiety.

Rozerem (ramelteon): I am a day sleeper and was only sleeping about 3 hours a day and waking several times during that 3 hours when I was just taking Ambien. I have starting taking Rozerem in combination with Ambien and I am now sleeping about 6 hours a day. The first few days I felt very drowsy but that has gone away and now I feel wonderful and rested.

Rozerem (ramelteon): Rozerem has been very effective for my sleep-onset issues with little side effect. However, some days I feel extremely tired (sleepy) throughout the day at random points. This severity of sleepiness really only seems to occur the day after I have taken Rozerem (I do not take it every night if I can help it).

Rozerem (ramelteon): Last night was my fifth time taking Rozerem. I take it around 9pm and am still awake until my normal time of 3-4am. I did not feel sleepy at all.

Rozerem (ramelteon): I used Rozerem and was very happy. It is strongly thought that nerve endings in the brain have been damaged by a virus or bacteria. I used it on a need to basis. 3 nights in a row, off a week, then 2 nights on and so on. I used only 8 in a month and did sleep when I used it. Whether I felt drowsy or got a headache from Rozerem I cannot say as my other diseases give me these symptoms, but I have to say I felt much better. I could not afford Rozerem as my insurance would not cover it. I can now afford and will use 8 -10 a month with Doctor's approval.

Rozerem (ramelteon): I have problems falling asleep, and also waking up many times during the night.
I tried Ambien first and it didn't seem to help much.
Now I have been using Rozerem 8 mg for about a week, and I have slept wonderfully, better than I have in years.
I do seem to have a little bit of residual affect in the morning of drowsiness, but it doesn't last long. After that I have had more energy throughout the day than I have had in a very long time.
So far Rozerem is working for me.

Rozerem (ramelteon): This product does not work very well at all in low dose. I took it the first night and got some sleep. After that, no effect. I don't wake up in the middle of the night, I just can't go to bed and go to sleep unless I am up most early am hours.

Rozerem (ramelteon): I try going to bed around 9pm,inorder to try to get some sleep, but usually wake up in the middle of the night 3-4 am, and can't go back to sleep. Last night I took my first tablet as perscribed. Today I feel fatique, dizzy, headache, bluh. What do I take to compensate for this side effets. Or, will they go away after my second dosage?
