"this medication was very effective for me, as it worked consistently to help me sleep and i never had to increase the dose from 15mg. however, if i had to do it all over again, i never would have started on it. this is a benzodiazapine, and with that comes a lot of issues. i took this medication for only one month consistently, and had to deal with physical discomfort and heightened anxiety (what i take to be slight withdrawal symptoms) when i decided to stop using it. now i&#039;m back to square one, dealing with insomnia and going through the steps i would have had to take (finding non-medical ways to treat my insomnia) had i never started the medication. heed the warnings and use drug free options to treat your sleeplessness."
