Anyone heard or tried

Quviviq for insomnia. I just saw an advertisement about it on TV.

I take it and can’t recommend it enough.

It’s very similar to Ambien without the weird high.

I can’t really say “without the weird high”,

Because there is a weird high.

It just doesn’t make you want to buy weird stuff or text a distant cousin some personal ■■■■.

Makes you sleepy and that’s it.

I’m thinking about asking the Dr about it. I’ve tried everything and it all seems to stop working after a few days.

I think it’s a good med.

Better than any other sleep med I’ve taken and I’ve tried a lot.

Be aware that is considered narcotic or controlled here in the states so some doctors don’t like that.

With ambien the weird high has gone long ago (been on it for a decade) - but still does its job to put me to sleep.

Was recently in the hospital like 6 mos ago - they didn’t have ambien and gave me something called trazadone and ended up having to give me Ativan which also didn’t work.

I take 200 mg trazadone…works for me.

Yeah I have tried seroquel, trazodone and mirtazapine. They all stopped working after a week.

It’s hard to find a good med that works for insomnia - that’s why I’m not gonna make the switch cause i can rely on what I’m on.

100 mg Seroquel works for me and is cheap. Trazidone gave me heart palpitations.

I heard about it from my sister too, but I haven’t tried it myself. It sounded pretty interesting to me
