My advice would be to take it a little earlier than you are now. So if you're taking it right as you get into bed, try taking it 30 or 45 minutes earlier while you're still moving around getting ready for bed. That way it's getting into your system and quieting things down nicely so you can fall asleep quicker. Hope this helps.
Thank you. So what you're thinking if I take it earlier, I can hopefully stay asleep when the restlessness kicks in? I do take all my medication about 30 minutes before I plan to be in bed, but I can definitely try taking it before I typically do.
