I take Lunesta for sleep. It helps me get to sleep but not so much staying asleep. If I need to I'll take Vistaril to go back to sleep.
My pnurse has given me a script for prescription-strength melatonin to replace Lunesta. Didn't know there was such a thing, but there is. I didn't fall asleep on OTC-strength melatonin, but will give this a shot. It's non-formulary so it'll be another goat rope with insurance.
Otherwise I work on non-med things like clearing my mind and not focusing on any thoughts. Sometimes that works too.
