I am experiencing bouts of insomnia. i have taken dormonoct 2mg which helps. however i have heard this is habit forming . may i continue to take it on the odd occasion about 2 times a week? also i have heard that blood pressure meds may cause insomni

Loprazolam: Loprazolam (Dromonoct) is a benzodiazapine. I recommend that you look to other methods to help with sleep. Look at sleep hygiene. Keep reg. bed & wake time. Make routine: warm bath /shower, aromatherapy, read, or gentle music. Sleep in dark, quiet, cool room w comfy mattress/pillows & no work materials or computer. Bedroom only for sleep & sex. No food 2-3 hrs, caffeine w/i 6 hrs, alcohol/smoking

See below: Dormonoct (ativan) is a benzodiazapam - you are not likely to get addicted using twice a week, and some blood pressure meds can cause insomnia -but do not stop your meds - insonmia has many causes - avoid stimulants, too much alcohol, -start exercising -but I would see my doctor - she can a thorough history, and pinpoint other ways of inproving your sleep -good luck
