Amazon Basic Care Nighttime Sleep Aid Tablets for Adults, Doxylamine Succinate 25 mg, 96 Count

The media could not be loaded. I’ve been purchasing these sleep tablets for about 3 years and they’re the best over the counter sleep supplement known to mankind. Be sure you have at least 7 hours to dedicate to sleep to prevent being groggy when you wake up. Affordable, easy to take, long lasting and WORKS WONDERS. Highly, HIGHLY, would recommend to anyone struggling with getting and staying asleep.

I was on Ambien 10mg for 12 years. I built up a tolerance to it and it no longer worked for me, plus it was just a really bad medication. This stuff has worked wonderfully. So much better than anything I’ve ever taken. I actually rest and feel a lot better the next day. If you are having doubts, try it ! You can’t beat the price, I’ve had great results !

Strong antihistamine for sleep. Fair warning that this leaves me very groggy the next day so I reserve it for times I really want extra sleep.

I have trouble sleeping. Like, SERIOUS trouble sleeping, and it’s been a lifelong problem for me. No matter how tired I am, it doesn’t equate into good sleep. I’ve tried everything that I could think of: home remedies, relaxation techniques, strict routines, melatonin, chamomile tea, diphenhydramine (Benadryl), and finally prescriptions.As a young adult, I thought I’d found the answer to my frustration of years of insomnia when my family doctor, whom I’d been a patient of for nearly a decade and knew of my struggles, suggested the then-newly released prescription beginning with the letter A and which rhymes with shmambien ;-). Although it worked pretty darned well at first, it caused some bizarre side effects like “sleep eating” (you’re not truly asleep, but not really awake either, and with an insatiable appetite and no real memory of it the next day). Another huge problem was amnesia if I happened to stay up past when the medicine kicked in. It was like flipping a switch—anything that I said or did after that moment was something that I would be oblivious to the following morning. The big downside was, like most people, I quickly built a tolerance which rendered it FAR less effective. My doctor said that was a very common problem with “shmambien” and switched me to a different newly released prescription starting with the letter L, and he which rhymes with tunesta ;-). Not only was it far less effective than the A prescription, but oh man—oh, I wasn’t prepared for one specific side effect. The following morning, I wondered what on earth I had “sleep eaten” the night before. I had the worst metallic taste in my mouth that I was convinced I’d somehow decided to store my spare change under my tongue for safekeeping. Yuck. Now I understood why the medicine’s commercials at that time featured Abraham Lincoln—it was because you feel like you’ve been using pennies as a replacement for a Werther’s Original.Once I read about doxylamine succinate and that it was considered to be the strongest over-the-counter sleep aid, I knew I needed to try it. I bought the name brand and the generic store brands and found that it consistently works very well for me and I have never once noticed a decrease in efficacy.I noticed that it can be hit or miss as far as finding it in the big box store as it tends to sell out quickly. After a cross-country move, I had some difficulty finding it in my local stores, so of course I looked to Amazon.I have purchased this brand about 6 or 7 times and I have been very pleased. The medicine looks exactly the same as the other brands I’ve used (I suspect that they are all manufactured in the same place) and it works just like the name brand and other store, generic, or private labeled brands of doxylamine succinate that I’ve used. I am very happy and will continue to purchase this on a regular basis as the price is excellent. I’ve now been taking it almost nightly since 2014 and I don’t feel unusually tired the next day, I’ve built absolutely no tolerance, I never say things of which I have no memory, I don’t sleep-eat, and I don’t have a bitter metallic taste in my mouth. I highly recommend this. It makes me feel better that this medicine has been around since about 1949 and is a first generation antihistamine. My doctor knows that I take it nightly and has no problem with it. I wish I’d known about it sooner.

Works very well , but do not take the entire pill , for me an 8th of the pill works just right where I can wake up feeling good to normal, again it does the job, just watch your dosage!

But the packaging is horrible, you need a medical degree and a pair scissors to open the little pill packs. They are horrible to get into

I started using unisom while pregnant. I would take 1/2 a tablet at night. It helped me get necessary rest. My husband will take unisom 1-4 times a week. He also only takes 1/2 a tablet and it works well for him. This is a great value medicine for the name brand unisom. Exactly the same ingredients.

This product definitely worked for me. I took it at 9 PM and was knocked out by 11 PM and slept all the way through until 9 AM the following morning. I did notice that while I got a really good sleep I did wake up feeling a little bit groggy. So maybe I need to cut the dosage in half. I am 130 pounds, and 5 foot five. I will be using this intermittently and not daily because the grogginess was a little bit too much for me. But if I needed to just get a solid night sleep with no interruptions, this will be my go to.
