Hello,
There is no strict time period for anxit. It can be taken as and when required.
But when the main reason for difficulty in sleeping is the caring of baby, I think her sleep problem will resolve if you try to re-schedule the sleep wake cycle of the baby.
Here I must tell you that, use of anxit for more than 4 weeks can cause its addiction as it is a habit forming medicine.
I would suggest you to give your daughter tablet zolpidem 5mg. This medicine has less-addiction potential as compared to anxit.
Thanks.
