For Insomnia "This medicine doesn't last. I'm on my second night of it, and it's 4 a.m. and I'm wide awake. My legs are very restless. I have stomach cramps. I've tried Trazodone, in fact, I was up to 200 mgs and still didn't feel it. Ambien made me hallucinate. I just want to sleep at night so I can have normal days with my kids."

For Insomnia "This drug is garbage and should be taken off the market. Doesn't work, keeps you up all night when you have to work a 12 hr shift the next day. Causes RLS, migraine, and insomnia."
