"i have been taking doxylamine for the past 10 years. this is a kirkland product, 25mg tablets. if i take a whole tablet it knocks me out and i am numb in the morning. still, it is the only sleep remedy i&#039;ve had success with and when i try to discontinue, because of the uncertainty of long term use, i don&#039;t sleep. at 76, i am doing my best to retain my cognitive function and i have serious questions about the long tern effects of this drug. to sleep or not to sleep, and i will choose sleep whatever the risk. i find that i can take 1/2 tablet and that has the desired effect...even 1/4 will sometimes do it. 

i would love to hear about the experience that others have had, for me this is the only thing that works, and i have tried everything."
