I personally use Unisom or the generic brand that is comparable, all that is in there is the same active ingredient that is in Benadryl. I usually take 2 of the unisom it takes about an hour to kick in. As far as a migraine medication, I have taken 800mg of over the counter ibuprofenwhich comes in 200mg tablets so I take 4 and that has seemed to help. Also I have used those patches called well-patch migrane cooling headache pads and those help too. I personally would not take that much ibuprofen without consulting a doctor first. Go to these sites for infromation on the products, also for future reference the well-patches that heat up work well on back too.

oftentimes dozing pills are no longer OTC products and subsequently are in basic terms bought on prescription of a Registered scientific Practitioner. inspite of the actual shown fact that Alprazolam in a dose of 0.25 mg at nighttime is a good tranquiliser yet is greater often than not no longer cautioned. Tab. Cardimap of Maharishi Ayurveda is a good drug for inducing sleep it extremely is an ayurvedic drugs

At a drug store.
The only non-prescription drug that is sold as a sleeping medicine is dyphenhydramine (generic Benedryl). It's sold as Sominex, etc., and is the sleeping ingredient in meds like Tylenol PM and Advil PM, etc. You can buy generic Benedryl to help you fall asleep. It doesn't work for everybody.
Excedrine has a Migraine formula, but there's nothing special about it. I think it contains caffiene. There's Acetaminophen (Tylenol) and ibuprofen (Advil/Motrin). That's about it. If otc meds don't help your migraine or you still can't sleep, then see a doctor.
Good Luck.

A pint of Jack Daniels should take care of both problems

excederin pm from any drug or foodstore, or if you just get aleve for the headache and simply sleep by tylenol, you'll be good to go...to bed!
