Hi Sami,  It's called neurontin.  I take 300 mg at night, sleep much better,
too!  Wake with a bit of a hangover, though.  Hangover wears off by 9:00 or
so.  The 300 mg lasts almost 24 hours for me.  But originally my doc
prescribed 300 at night and 300 more twice through the day.  I'd never wake
up if I took that much, but I usually can't take much medication - I over
react to many.

Good luck, let me know if it works for you!
Melanie
