> Just wanted to know what people are using for insomnia, besides Ambien, sonata and lunesta. A family member is experiencing insomnia and is looking for an effective aide, that won't know him out for 12 hours, but keeps him asleep for more than 3 or 4.

Tamara & All PB,

Sleep disturbances used to be a BIG problem for me; trouble getting to sleep and/or waking up in the middle of the night unable to go back to sleep. But these sleep problems have been fixed for more than a year. 300 mg of Trileptal (I'm BP II) at bedtime is a good sleep aid and 750 mg of magnesium at bedtime is an excellent sleep aid. Use a good chelated form of magnesium (e.g.; mg malate, mg citrate, mg glycinate, etc).

-- Ron

BP II and OCPD

600 mg/day Lithobid

900 mg/day Trileptal

50 mg/day Lamictal

5 mg/day Deprenyl (as tx for atypical depression)
