I have insomnia and it works pretty well for me, at least as good as prescriptions did. How often do you use it and do you notice any side effects?
My wife uses it several times a week and it works well. She doesn't experience any side effects.I have insomnia and it works pretty well for me, at least as good as prescriptions did. How often do you use it and do you notice any side effects?
I tried zzzquil a couple days ago but no joy. My sleep was no better than without. I had hope as nyquil does work for me. Some things work for DW but not me so I think there must be many factors in what makes it work for you. If I take nyquil I only take about 1/2 dose and it is enough. Only once a month or so.
Zzzquil does have diphenhydramine HCL (like Benadryl) but Zzzqul Ultra has doxylamine succinate as the active ingredient. (Doxylamine is one of the ingredients in Nyquil.)
I find doxylamine, which is also used in Unisom and Kirkland (Costco) sleeping tablets to be much more powerful than diphenhydramine. So much more powerful that I cut a 25mg tablet into quarters. A whole tablet would probably knock me out for 24hr.
I’ve had trouble sleeping for years. I solved my problem by using Unisom and a muscle relaxer, along with a drink of scotch before bedtime. It guarantees me at least seven hours of sleep.
