Equate Nighttime Sleep-Aid Doxylamine Succinate 25mg Tablets, 32 Count, Compare to Unisom® Sleep Tabs® Active Ingredient

This is the only sleep med that would actually get me to sleep and stay asleep longer without waking up during the night as often. The added bonus- it's not expensive. Not all Walmarts stock it- usually found at the Supercenters. Be aware there are two kinds: doxylamine succinate and doxylamine diphenhydramine. I use the one with succinate as diphenhydramine, otherwise known as Benadryl, wires me that I cannot get to sleep.

Took for many years just a half of this tabs about an hour before bed. Helped wonderful to fall quick asleep and stay asleep. My Dr wanted me to stop them now and prescribed me something , bc some studies show that Doxylamine is linked to dementia . So I listened to my Dr and with a heavy heart I stopped using the Doxy. I do recommend them though , for short term help , for people who do well with this ingredient . This ingredient is also in the Unisom Sleep aid. Now if you get the Unisom , be aware they have tabs and capsules. Both have a different active ingredient. The Unisom tabs also have the Doxilamine. I know this , bc years ago I bought Unisom, until I found the Equate with the great price. Much cheaper and made in Italy.
