Lynn, I attended a seminar on sleep problems, given by a doctor who specializes in sleep disorders. He says it is very important for PWP to get their sleep even if they have to take a sleeping pill every night. Ask your Mom's neuro, I'm sure he'll agree. My doctors both say I should take one every night but I only take it when I really need it but I'm a lot younger than your Mom and have a lot more years to go. The doctors recommend Imovane 7.5 mg. Underneath that it says Zopiclone 7.5 mg. I use only half a pill or even 1/3. It works wonders. They are non habit forming and don't give you a hangover in the morning. Hope this helps.
