The stresses and strains of everyday living can leave a lot of people feeling very tired. However, not everyone can benefit from a proper nights sleep and for a lot of people they turn to a whole host of pills to help them sleep.
Although there are ranges of sleeping pills obtained through your doctor, a lot of them are not without side effects, some of which could be potentially very harmful to your well being.
The variation of side effects can range from drowsiness, fatigue and dizziness. To the harsher effects which in some cases lead to depression.
Another well known sleeping pill called Ambien also has a long list of Ambien side effects and Ambien is a trade name for Zolpidem, can lead to any one of the following:
* Anterograde amnesia
* Hallucinations , through all physical senses, of varying intensity
* Delusions
* Altered thought patterns
* Ataxia or poor motor coordination , difficulty maintaining balance
* Euphoria and/or dysphoria
* Increased appetite
* Increased libido
* Amnesia
* Impaired judgment and reasoning
* Increased impulsivity
* When stopped, rebound insomnia may occur
* Headaches, in some people
For example the Rozerem side effects in 2% of cases can lead to depression. People need to be careful if they already suffer from depression then sleeping pills like Rozerem should be off limits.
Other pills such as Lunesta, which goes uner the name of Eszopiclone, can result to things like unpleasant bitter or metallic taste, headaches, chest pain, cold-like symptoms, body pains, dry mouth, daytime drowsiness, lightheadedness, dizziness
It’s obvious with just a handfull of perscription pills covered in this post it’s clear to see that some of the estanlished pills can lead to numerous undesirable side effects.
So are there any alternatives and what should you be considering.
There are more natural options to perscription pills and although in some cases they are not as good as as perscription pills, at least you’ll know there are no nasty effects waiting for you around the corner.
