Re: Unisom +B6 question

  • I just picked up this combo last night.  I ended up asking the pharmacist because the brand label for Unisom was gel and I needed the kind you could cut in half.  I ened up with the Walgreens Wal-Som version.  I hope the combo works for you.  It has left me really sleepy but still sick so I'm not sure if I will contiune.

  • I'm a store brand kind of girl so my doctor said look for sleep aids with doxylamine succinate, that is the active ingredient in Unisom.

  • It is healthier for you and baby and typically more effective if you try taking a B-complex vitamin. But be sure to eat something like green beans or a food that naturally contains the B vitamins when you take it. That way your digestive system is better able to absorb the vitamins you need.

    I'm taking a medication called diclectin.  It's a b6 vitamin and 10mg of doxylamine.  So you can go as low as 10mg if you find it :)

  • I'm not sure which Unisom I'm taking since I got it from the hospital pharmacy via prescription, but it has saved my life!!!!!! Make sure you eat, and drink A LOT of water. If I don't eat or drink enough I feel really spacey. Learned the hard way when I was at walmart.
