DO NOT listen to Johnstar....Benedryl and OTC sleeping pills are just as bad. I just went off them after taking them for 4 years....so bad for you, now to get through the transition I'm taking the Kava and 5 HTP. The teas that blend the valerian, passion flower, lemon balm, chamamile, and hops are really good to have at night too. Don't go back to any meds, I would keep trying with the herbs.... for a few months 'til your body is back on it's natural cycle.
