i have never taken it personally but I hear you will definately sleep... you may have some grogginess or that hang over feeling for the first few days.. I have a friend that took it and it helped her sleep.. knocker her out actually.. after a few days she adjusted to it better..

Good luck..

i don't know exactly what that is...however, i'm taking trazadone and it is a very strong medication for sleep. i take half a pill (i think it would be 25mg) and i could probably get a good night's sleep with even half of the 25mg. some sleeping pills like that can be really addictive, so be careful.
