"Was on Dalmane for only 5 weeks but it really helped me sleep. The doctor was sure to gradually, slowly ween me off. Dalmane was good for insomnia.. I do not sleep well, but glad I am not addicted. Xanax and Klonopin are VERY addictive."

"Just got this a few days ago. Trazapam sucks. Zanax too strong. Kolopin ehhh. But this was my life savor (for now). During the day I am so tired so I take adderall (I've tried everything) and at night its like a switch and I'm wide awake ready to go. I wasn't looking for something to make me knocked out. But just to give me that feeling of normal like I feel mellow like I can go ti bed and I sleep, I don't wakeup eating like I did the others, no groggy next day hangover and no scary dreams. I take a kolopin 1mg then the flurazepam, kolopin to give me that sleep feeling which goes away after a hour then the flurazepam kicks in and keeps me asleep, not any bad effects. Finally after years I have found something that works. Thank god. 11-5-21"

"Been on Dalmain 25 years was steady and stable than told had to come off. It’s the worst drug ever to come off. I lost weight, had uncontrollably shakes no sleep paranoid down to a quarter dose and stopping taking Loazepam 1 mg Hope I don’t crash don’t use it."

"I have tinnitus (ringing in the ears) which made me trouble sleeping. I started at 60mg of Flurazepam and thought it was great: I finally slept and got my life back. But after a year it worked less and less and I went up to 90mg. After 5 years I decided to quit. I'm in full benzo withdrawal and it's a nightmare! I would rather not sleep than go back to Flurazepam."

"I have taken this for years, less effective with time; I have super tolerance to any sleep aids. Often have to take over counter sleepers, night-time sinus tabs, other "drowsiness" meds to get it to work. Also have Rx for Ativan (1mg - very mild tranquilizer); chewing 4 of these has better result than my 30 mg Flurazepam."
