Brief Answer:
Promethazine

Detailed Answer:
The benzodiazepines like diazepam, clonazepam, lorazepam etc; the non-benzodiazepine sleeping pills like zolpidem / zaleplone etc require prescription

But, promethazine that helps in sleep is an antihistamine, is available without prescription

However, one need to understand and then treat sleep problems rather than on your own

Hope this helps
