Sleep apnea?: First, you need to follow up with a good primary care physician. Second, your medications listed shouldn't usually cause sleep problems, although people could have individual side effects not usually associated with those medicines. Third, be evaluated for sleep apnea. It can start with simple question/answering by your doctor. You can look online if you want further information (webmd is good).
