Best over the counter sleeping pills?
Tylenol had a pill called "Simply Sleep" and I used it as a sleep regulator on Sunday nights so that I can sleep early to wake up in time for Monday classes. I bought my first when I was 18, I ate them whenever I didn't feel like sleeping on a Sunday night to this day and I don't have a dependency. It has no painkillers in it (so no liver damage) and comes with 20mg of Calcium (yay for my bones)! I tried finding another bottle because I love it so much but I think Tylenol is taking a break from making them. Target and Walmart has manufactured a generic brand that looks the same in size, color, and ingredients. I tried both of them, they work the same (amazing refreshed feeling when you wake up). Just look for the ones with Diphenhydramine HCl 25 mg in each caplet. They're really small blue rod-shaped pills. The boxes tend to advertise on the "actual size" of the pill on the box. I love it, everyone else that I have shared them with love them too. Don't ever go for liquid gel caps. They knock you out really fast but the wake-up-feeling isn't as refreshing.

Can I take Vicodin and over the counter sleeping pills at the same time?
First and far most ...call the pharmacy that you use to fill your scripts for the medications your doc prescribes.......... in my opinion....If that is all you are taking then you should be fine maybe you will be extra sleepy....or some what groggy and harder to wake..... Most sleeping pills have diphenhydramine in them to make you drowsy...this is the same active ingredient as regular ( generic) over the counter benadryl. PLEASE DO NOT EXCEED two sleeping pills...if they have 25mg of diphenhydramine ( per Pill)...This will give you a total dose of 50mg...of benadryl in conjunction with your prescribed amount of vicodin.......Again I do encourage you to call your pharmacy for a definite answer according to your prescription profile....... BE safe ...Take Care!!!
Age for buying sleeping pills over the counter?
There's no age restriction on OTC meds, just make sure you take only the recommended dose and if you have a weird reaction or it doesn't work talk to your doctor & see if there may be something else. Since many OTC sleep aids contain random drugs you could always try the more 'natural' sleep aid & go with a vitamin called Melatonin.. Walgreens carries it as well. If you want a better opinion ask your dr or the pharmacist.

Claritin-d + over the counter sleeping pills?
Your Claritin D contains loratidine (an antihistamine), and "D" means it contains pseudoephedrine (a nasal decongestant). Your over the counter sleeping pill is Diphenhydramine, which is also an antihistamine similar to claritin, except it is more potent and more sedating. Diphenhydramine is the same as Benadryl. It should make you pass out, as well as it has a hangover effect in some people so when you wake up in the morning you may still feel kinda groggy. I took claritin myself, and it actually made me tired so i had to stop taking it. Zyrtec also made me tired so i had to stop that too. im now on allegra and singulair for my allergies. To answer your question, yes it safe to take two different antihistamines. i do it myself (allegra and singulair). Also, it is safe to take them with your nasal decongestant (pseudoephedrine), just dont take more then the maximum recommended dose. I don't recommend taking diphenhydramine to fall asleep unless very necessary, because it can be addicting and you may end up relying on it every night to fall asleep. There are other methods of falling asleep, such as not having caffeine near bedtime, warm glass of milk helps me to fall asleep, etc. Google it and you can read numerous other methods. Hope this helps
Can you commit suicide using over the counter sleeping pills?
You probably couldn't take enough to kill yourself, but most over the counter sleep aids have ingredients in them that can really screw up your liver. When I worked in a hospital, we saw lots of people coming in trying to kill themselves with OTC stuff, and they just ended up getting their stomachs pumped and then dealing with liver problems for the rest of their lives. You would be waaaaaay worse off then you are now. Not to mention the fact that they can have you commited against your will if they think you're a danger to yourself. Call your local mental health agency and tell them you've been having suicidal thoughts. They can help you while letting you still be in control But don't put your family through the hell of your trying to kill yourself.
