A: As I understand it, sleep-aids are broken down into 2 types: “hypnotics” which essentially knock you out and “natural/hormonal supplements”. Ambien is a pretty mild prescription hypnotic (you can still get up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night and not stumble head first down the stairs). Melatonin is a natural hormonal supplement that when taken helps relax you (and your mind) – some folks swear by it, some it does nothing for. There are many causes for sleeplessness, so it might help to have a talk with your DR. to figure out if there there is a cause such as diet, medication side-effect, etc. and then determine how to treat the problem. I’ve heard some people try meditation and sound machines as well.
