"restoril 15mg works pretty well for me. i started experiencing moderate insomnia, just over a year ago. i&#039;ve been taking 2mg of xanax, 3 times a day for many years, for panic attacks. my psychiatrist prescribed restoril, because it&#039;s also a benzodiazepine. it doesn&#039;t have the &quot;hangover effects&quot; of other sleep medications. the only complaint that i have is that it doesn&#039;t last as long as it&#039;s supposed to, for me. i usually wake up about 5 hours after, and have difficulty getting back to sleep. if you&#039;re already taking a benzo, this should be great for you, on a short or long term basis. if you&#039;re not, then be careful and wean off of it, because you can have have pretty nasty withdrawal symptoms!"
