Call a pharmacy before you do this... you may get way more sleep than you bargained for.. like permanent sleep. Heavy duty pain pills and sleeping pills lead to things like drug automatism, where you think you haven't taken your pills yet, and OD.
This is a theory on why Marilyn Monroe died, take your cue from her and don't follow this example! Check with a licensed pharmacist before you mix drugs, it's very dangerous.

You're fine. My doctor gave me both at the same time. Just don't take more than the recommended dose of either. Sleep tight.

This is a subject you should bring up with your physician or, at least, your pharmacist, as there could be a potentially serious interaction between the 2 drugs.

you're mixing two downers at one time. each pill will just increase each others side effect, in other words... youll experience something similar to being drunk. technically it's dangerous to mix downers together but at therapeutic doses it's been done. I'm sure youll be knocked out and wake up groggy.
