At the onset of anxiety I take 10 mg or 2 of the 10mg and it relaxes me and it works to curtail the anxiety....... Published: December 08, 2007 ::

This has helped so much with my panic attacks. I only use it if the attack is severe and it does not go away within 10 minutes or so, which is not often. The only downside is that it makes me very tired--but having a panic attack does that anyway. Dr. prescribed b/c I do not have attacks often and do not wish to take Xanax. I use this to supplement my dose of Paxil if I need to. Published: October 13, 2007 ::

I use this drug as an alternative to narcotics based anxiety medications for calming and sleep, post 911. I take one half of a tablet only as needed before bedtime. My change in hectic lifestyle and this drug have contributed to my well being. Published: November 19, 2007 ::

Comment from: Female (Patient)

This medication works so well for me. I have extremely bad anxiety, and cannot fall asleep at night, so I take it to ease myself into sleep. It has worked every time and has made a huge impact on my sleep. Published: November 05, 2007 ::

This medication worked very well for me on itching from allergic reaction. Sometimes takes a while to work, but overall very satisfied with this drug. Published: October 26, 2007 ::

Comment from: pz1, 35-44 Female on Treatment for 1-6 months (Patient)

Really helps with my anxiety and helps me sleep as well. It does make me tired, so I try and only take it when I really need it for anxiety or to get a good nights rest. Also, it's non-addictive. I am a recovering alcohlic and did not want any habit-forming medications. Published: October 20, 2008 ::

Comment from: 19-24 Female on Treatment for 1-6 months (Patient)

I have anxiety attacks on a regular basis. After starting to take this medication, I feel great! It makes me really sleepy, but if I know I'm going to do something or go to work that day I just take 1/2 of one pill.. and it just calms me. I really recommend this for those of you with anxiety!

Comment from: MSSPIN2U, 35-44 Female on Treatment for 1-6 months (Patient)

I have been using this medicine for itching, due to am implant that I was found to be allergic to. Boy did this medicine do wonders for me, it calm my reaction to the itching sensation, and controlled the skin reaction, the underlying small bumps i would get that itched so bad, have calmed about 90 %. I guess I using this for a long time to come, since I CANNOT have the implant removed. I recommend this pill highly. Published: August 26, 2008 ::
