Is There An Alternate Medication To Lunesta And Ambien To Treat Insomnia?

I have had insomnia for the past ten years. My doctor would like to prescribe me sleep medication. He has already prescribed ambien and lunesta but my medicare insurance will not pay for it. Can you suggest which other medications can be prescribed that my insurance will pay for?

hi
You may consult a physician to obtain clonazipam and zolfresh instead of drugs you are on,or ask doctor in your place which other drugs are covered under insurance in your country.For insomnia, meditation, relaxing techniques are also helpful, one should be anxiety and stress free before bedtime.One must know the cause of insomnia and a psychiatrist may also help
best wishes
thanks
