Insomnia or day/night reversal is 'normal' with cirrhosis. Sleeping pills either prescribed or OTC are extremely dangerous and should be avoided.

You could try taking Melatonin, which is natural and is the chemical used to control the circadian cycle (the body's clock). You can buy it at any pharmacy in the vitamins section. It doesn't work for be, to be honest, but for some it does.

The best advice I can give is sleep when you feel the need. Don't try and fight it - it's not worth it.
