hiii
alprex is vary addictive molecule
u can try tab zolpidame 10 mg or tab clonazepam .5 mg if needed
identify any stress related area and working on it
if u have any other psychological symptoms apart from insomnia like depression and anxiety etc than treatment of it is necessary
consult psychiatrist for that
following will helpful to get natural sleep
fix schedule of sleep and stick on it
no day time nap
avoid smoking
avoid alcohol
avoid tea coffee soft drink before sleep
do exercise that make u fatigue
meditation and stress free work
use bed only when u sleepy
light music while u sleep
cool and calm bed room etc
thank u
