Comment:
After back surgery a year ago and taking pain meds I have been unable to sleep. I have tried various prescription meds and had side affects. Also my MD had me coming back monthly to renew the prescription. I tried Unisom and have been able to fall asleep. I am a little groggy in the morning but not too much.
