Sleeping Pills Good or Bad

- Insomnia bedevils almost everyone. Unfortunately chronic sleep difficulties appear in genetically susceptible individuals often coupled with superimposing factors (stress) and perpetuated by poor sleep habits. Short term use of generic versions of Ambien, Lunesta, Restoril, Halcion and other still patented drugs provide at least short term benefit with potentially fewer side effects compared to over-the-counter antihistamines such as Advil PM, Tylenol PM, Sominex and Unisom.
What a great loss to this world with a wonderful knowledge well spoken man RIP sir
You know what happened to him?
@@somneang87time29 No I’m not sure what happened I just know he’s deceased a wealth of knowledge what a lost to the world
Really??
@@sl4983 Yes. Dr. Ken Landow is really dead, unfortunately.
This guy is still my hero. R.I.P Dr. Ken
Finally, a Doctor Who knows what he’s talking about, has read the literature and appears to have clinical experience.
Thank you for your help and insight.
This doctor is so good. Every video he produces is full of great information.
You explain things very well. I went over 15 years raising my family on 2 to 3 hours of sleep a night and working part time. Finally a Doctor took me seriously and gave me Rhovane and I became a normal person and joined the human race and could be a proper parent. I have never looked back and will always be great full to my Doctor.
Do you still take it?
What's rhovane
You should only take Rhovane for 7 to 8 days 😂
Now you’re addicted to it
@@ivosoares9459If you think that’s funny, you are a sick person. The guy is getting some sleep! Obviously, you don’t understand what it’s like to function with little to no sleep.
A realistic view of the insomia problem.
Your a brilliant Dr. Well explained every time
After training my brain that sleep was an enemy with massive amounts of coffee all night long for years as an emergency worker, I have now been prescribed Temazepam for years and have enjoyed restful sleep each night since the drug dose was titrated to the effective range.
Dean burney how many mg are you on ? I’ve been prescribed 10mg and am super on edge about taking them.
Beware of temazzies, they're very addicting, more than clonazepam or alprazolam. Cheers
Dean burney can I take trams one every
I have been taking trauma zone for two years now can I take every other day now.
@Michael Stec I know, mate. I've been on it for ten years, 1mg pills. I took it because of insomnia and anxiety (I am an ex H addict) and it worked great. Soon after a year, I completely lost control on it, and two pills at night became five, six, ten, during all the day. So I switched on clonazepam, which is longer lasting, and it's used for short half-life benzos addiction like alprazolam, lorazepam, etc. Well, now I'm fkd up! Beware mate, take care! Cheers
@@nevillehattersley4304 I was prescribed 3mg a day (one in the morning, one on midday and one before being off to bed. But I started with normal dosage, then 3mg /3mg/3mg then there micro - withdrawal symptoms started showing up, and I had to take from one to four in a row every two or three hours, until it didn't work anymore. A 28 tablets pack wouldn't last a day . That's how I switched on clonazepam. But...... BEWARE!!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Excellent and very sensible presentation, just the facts.
I have been taking temazepam 30 mg for several years now nightly with no side effect. I works in a timely manner(around 30 min.) with virtually no "hangover" or next day drowsiness or ill effects. The next morning I feel quite well rested. Maybe I'm one of the lucky ones.
a lot of people say the same
Dale Andrews you are addicted... that’s what its called when you take something for years. Try to come off over time .... good luck
Carlos Sabater try saying addicted to people with heart disease or diabetes who take pills for life time. It is not like these people with insomnia wanted to drink pills. They just cant sleep.
U are addicted.
If it works it works!
Eating enough and sleeping enough is necessary for mind
All insomnia medications are meant to be used for no more than a week, but the truth is we may need them for an extended period of time while the cause of insomnia is being addressed. That's just reality. They're bad for us, but chronic insomnia may be much worse for us. It may take a relatively long time to solve the insomnia problem.
There seems to benefit one day a year lol the dependency makes it so you can’t sleep in the long term, I have ptsd and memory problems, these meds don’t seem to be worth the risks considering my health issues
@Lisa Love true
Damn that intro was 🔥🔥🔥
Song?
Loved my Zopiclone for naps
A like a diazapam now and then to sleep i suffer from GAD , it's nice to be able to relax and be happy. God bless you if you're reading this God loves you. Good luck for 2022 ❤
I am on Temazepam 10mg 2x at night. My gp put me on amitriptyline however I find amitriptyline to give me blackouts so then he has put me on Valium 2mg however I still prefer Temazepam. Sometimes Temazepam puts me to sleep however if I have to go to the bathroom I find I have to take another tablet which is annoying.
Are you still taking them?
How's your sleep now?
Ask your doctor about trazodone
it works for sleep and helps with anxitey
i was using it for a few months but went off it because i don't need it anymore for sleep it worked good put me to sleep right away
Mirtazapine is excellent for sleep....only drawback is severe fatigue the next day .
Nightmare to get off
Zolpidem doesn't do that.
Lunesta doesn't do that
What about canabis or the gummies that has marihuana.'
Chamomile and hops
When you are 85 and have 2,cancers. Can't sleep pain. What would you do?
Take any meds that work
John at 85 take the one you feel best the next day if possible
Lol Some Seconal buddy, sounds like you’ve got it rough
One 45 ACP should do the trick....
Advil PM
I feel sorry for people who have to deal with that pharmacist giving them dirty looks everytime they ask for him to put their medication in the bag and ring them out.
What do you mean
Pharmacists SUCK.
My doctor took me off Ambien after 10+ years. I had no problem stopping now I take over the counter diphenhydramine.
That's terrible! Diphenhydramine is more dangerous and harder on the body than zolpidem. After 10 years it's ridiculous that he had to virtue signal and take you off of a med that was working for you.
It causes dementia don't take it
I have horrible insomnia and also chronic pain and I am always on the hunt for a good night's sleep. I am new to Lunesta but it doesn't matter how drowsy I am since I am on disability. I can sleep as late as I want. My Dr started me on 3 mg which got me a few hours sleep. So I took it with a couple 1mg Klonopin. So now I'm taking 9mg of Lunesta at night and it works well. Is there a med I can take a normal dose and get some sleep? I really like your videos. Thank you. Happy Easter.
Did yoy try MJ edibles?, could help for your pain and give you a good solid sleep.
Ambien
Ask for ambien or halcyon they work much better and don't leave that horrible taste in your mouth. 9mg is a LOT a month supply last you 3 nights?
Olanzapine has done wonders for me
Screw the IRS!
25 mg laroxyl and 5 mg valium
Still have horrible sleep or vivid dream
My body begging brain to sleep but my brain still active
Btw of my life
Dont use any medicine for sleep..
@@creepergaming9402 if you go days and days no sleep what you do
love the intro music
What about halcion.....doctor wants to give me 0.125 after I have taken 1 mg. of klonopin if I wake up during the night.
Zopiclone gave me akathisia, and I was only it a few days. It was hell.
Zolpidem about $4 a month for 1-2 per evening, and it's gentle on the stomach unlike OTC
Diazepam has ruined my life I was on 5mg three times a day and I still am 7 years later on 5mg 3 times a day I was also on ambien and and promethazine as well as codiene. The diazepam withdrawal and tapering attempts made the horrific other drug withdrawal effects easier to stop. My life is ruined.
Both!
Been there.. But the more you use sleep meds. The less quality sleep you have
So true. They gave me ambien and it almost killed me
I've been taking for almost 25 years. I tried to quit but it's coming back after fews days of having a normal sleep. Looking for alternatives.
@@phinehoshi holy shit
@@phinehoshi What kind have you taken for 25 years? I'm just curious
@@phinehoshi how you make out with getting off pills What pill were. You on
The intro is so 80's WTF .Anyway , awesome content!
He was a great doctor 😢
What about the shining light into eyes you say is effective? Thank you!
Trazadone 150mgs works great
Does it help anxiety at night? Sometimes 50mg Trazadone doesn't help. So I have to take .5 of Klonopin
Trazadone keeps me up even more then if I take nothing at all. It sucks
@@jpmcfluffies9451how are you know
Most benzodiazepines, strength is weak to moderate, Doctors often exaggerate their strength to put patients into a “Fear - Psychosis “ ,
Just like Hennessy, if I have 5 cups of Hennessy I may not walk straight, but 1 or 2, I still keep my balance, and not disoriented.
wtf are you talking about
@@infamousjax rofl
Getting sleep by seeing this video
He talked about anything but the real reason for insomnia: anxiety
Probably true, but it's a hard thing to get control of the anxiety. So frustrating when you can't relax and just fall asleep and stay asleep.
What can you tell me about clonidine? I’ve been on it for sleep since I was 10 now I’m 24 and I still don’t. I often feel sick when I don’t take clonidine. I take two .2mg of clonidine daily.
Clonidine for sleep? Interesting. It's an alpha receptor antagonist as the method of action. So commonly perscribed for blood pressure and to lower heart rate. He has a video on clonodine, check it out it's great.
I've taken it for sleep.
Clonodine take you out of flight or fight mode.
Anyone use sonata let me know. How ya like
Do triazolam (Halcion) please!!
How is a person going to function with zero sleep? I can stay awake 24/7 if I don’t take a sleeping pill. Currently taking Lunesta 2mg. Have been on Zolpidem previously, 10mg and I would wake up after 2 or 3 hours. If the Lunesta 2mg doesn’t work, my endocrinologist is going to switch me to 3mg. I have had a partial thyroidectomy.
What's it called if you can only sleep roughly 2 to 5 hours every couple of days
Good good good!
I have hade a lott of noise disturbance from my neighbor living upstairs of me.
earplugs
What about dayvigo?? New and expensive.
What's wrong with remeron? (Mirtazapine)
@@podziemnaprawda8752 out of the antidepressants/sleeping pills for sleep, remeron seems the most beneficial with fewest life threatening side effects
@@blairsterling6141 how many mg were you taking?
I wish it still worked for me. I gave me damn good sleep for a while there, then just stopped working. :(
@@jpmcfluffies9451
Ask your doctor about trazodone it works for sleep and helps with anxitey
i was on it for a couple of months it put me right to sleep
I gained 22 pounds in a month on Remeron. Stay away.
Do sleeping pills effect the kidneys?
No
Water does! Don't drink it.
all the medications do
Alcohol is the worst chemical. It will never be banned cuz nancy pelosi and gavin newsom own vineyards and grape refineries turning grape juice into profit$.
Finally when he discusses the cost $ he is a guy pro drug mafia not a solutionist to sufferers.
Does this medication give you high blood pressure?
Which medication? Did you watch the video?
During withdrawal
So If I took a lot of it over two weeks throughout most of the early evening/night/morning would it cause psychosis for the whole two weeks plus memory loss?
I have had chronic insomnia for 10 yrs. I have been on trazadone for 9 and that atleast gets me to sleep.
I can't sleep through the night or feel refreshed I exercise tried everything xanax ambien etc my mind just won't let me sleep
if ambien doesn't work for you I don't know what to say
R u still using this medicine
@@archanamakhija3408 yes can't sleep without it
