Suggest Remedies To Get Rid Of Dependency On Sleep Tablets

Hello Sir I have been taking sodium valproate, tryptomer 75mg and stemetil md for over a year now, for my migraine headaches. I have quit taking sodium valproate and stemetil md , but I am stuck up with tryptomer, because I cant sleep if i stop taking the tryptomer tablets at night. How should I get rid of this dependency. Thanks

Hello
Thanks for writing in HCM
I had gone through your query and understood your concerns.
I suggest you stop tryptomer and start tab zolfresh 10 mg
cut down to 5 mg after 15 days and stop it by one month
As it does not cause dependency there will not be a problem to stop it
