Talk to: Your doctor. May need to change your meds. Or the times you take them. I don't recommend taking a med for sleep since the other medicine seems to be causing the trouble sleeping. Talk to your doctor to help find the best options

Back pain: Right now you are only using Tylenol (acetaminophen). You could try adding an NSAID like ibuprofen and see if that helps.
