There is a forum for drug questions. You might get a better response over there.

Sounds like you are having too many side effects to take that. That's an ingredient in Nyquil, is just a heavy duty antihistamine but sounds like your body ain't liking it. I'd try something else.

Sorry about the sleeping problems Rissie....I suffer from them too.
It sounds like you are experiencing a paradoxical affect from the unisom. I can't take anything with antihistamines because it reacts completely opposite on me than what it is meant to do. Could be happening to you also. Hope you find some way to get some relaxation and sleep soon!  sabby |

If I was you, I'd ask my parents or my doctor. Maybe you just need to change your lifestyle some?

Seems like it isn't working for you Rissie... I would phone my doctor if I was you.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
