best combo i have found for myself....
trazadone 100mg, 45 min before bed
melatonin sr, which i prefer, .5 to 1mg.....which also seems to help with sad this time of year
and occasionally 5mg valium on a hypomanic night, chewed 15 min before sleep while in bedthe meds were what my neurologist, a big time sleep expert here in la prescribed....the doc could care less about supps
you can get both sr and sublingual melatonin in almost any dosages from 'emerson ecologics' on the web....don't know if they ship to canada
regular melatonin at any dose seemed to have a minor effect but i often woke later in the night..hence my switch to sustained release
sleep is the most essential thing for my overall well being
best to all
