For Insomnia "My doctor gave me the 15 mg to try over this past weekend. I have lots of pain, and it keeps me awake. 15 mg really didn't help me fall asleep, but I took the 2 other pills that I was trying to get away from about 3AM, then I slept until 11AM. This happened 2 days in a row. 3 night I took two 15 mg pills, and it still took forever to get to sleep, but I did get there, and was up at 8AM. I'm going to take them early tonight, and see how it goes. I only had 10 to try. Maybe like some reviews I read I need a kicker of some kind."

For Insomnia "As a chronic insomniac I have trouble not only getting to sleep but staying asleep. Temazepam works wonderfully: 7-8 hours of blissful sleep. There are no side-effects that I have noticed."

For Insomnia "I've been taking Restoril a little over a year now. At first they work wonders but when your body gets used to it it does not work anymore. Next time I see my Dr I'm going to ask for something else."
