Ask your doc: Aids range from rather benign herbal remedies such a chamomille tea, otc products which often contain an antihistimine amd more potent prescription products. Tthere are risks of taking anything depending on health history and other meds one is taking. Best thing is to talk to a doc and rule out medical causes for insomnia. http://cpancf.com/articles_files/sleephygienehandout.asp.
