Valerian And Sleeping Problems Posted: 07-16-07 15:31pm
Hello all, new to the sleep disorder
forum. I recently have stopped drinking
alcohol before going to bed (totally sober
with no buzz or nothing) and was having a
lot of difficulty falling asleep. I
started taking Valerian at the suggested
dosage of 3 capsules 1 hour before
bedtime. It sort of works but still takes
over an hour to sleep after I lye down.
Can I take 4 or 5 capsules? Can that be
dangerous? Is there another supplement I
can take that might work better? I prefer
to stay away from sleep aids from the drug
store or even products like Ambion CR as
I'm worried I would get hooked on them or
abuse them. Please help as I'm beginning
to dread going to bed.

OK. So nobody knows about Valerian root.
Anything else that has worked well?
Melatonin? Ambien CR?
