What can I do to sleep while coming down off the vicadin?  Ambien does not work.  Sometimes even violent dreams.

First, I saw your other post which was more detailed.
Again, as a suggestion post on the addiction forum and you will get much support.

Me, I went through the "normal" w/d physical symptoms- rsl, insomnia, diarrhea for about 7 or 8 days. I still have sleep problems with anxiety and some leg cramps- my dr. gave me xanax which i take only at night, when i really need it to sleep. it helps me. But i am an addict and don't want to take too much.

I am 57 years old. I have had some nasty dreams in my life, related to my tour in Vietnam. But not necessarily from coming off the vikes.

It will get better. For better and more info post the other forum.
