OTC Sleep aids: I understand your distress of withdrawal symptoms and need for relief. Being on OTC sleep aids for 3 years, you developed Dependence, going “cold turkey” led to withdrawal symptoms - nausea, sweating, shaking, extreme anxiety or other symptoms. Your Health is Precious! For Diagnosis of acute withdrawal symptoms and for relief of distress, go to ER
