Why Taking Perscription Sleeping Tablets can be Bad for Your Well being
The stresses and strains of everyday living can leave a lot of people feeling very tired. However, not everyone can improve from a good nights sleep and in lots of circumstances they turn to a plethora of pills to help them sleep.
Although there are lots of sleeping pills available through your doctor, a lot of them are not without side effects, some of which could be really very risky to your health.
The variation of side effects can range from drowsiness, fatigue and dizziness. To the harsher effects where depression can be triggered.
Another well known sleeping pill called Ambien also has a long list of Ambien side effects and Ambien is a trade name for Zolpidem, can lead to any one of the following:
* Anterograde amnesia
* Hallucinations , through all physical senses, of varying intensity
* Delusions
* Altered thought patterns
* Ataxia or poor motor coordination , difficulty maintaining balance
* Euphoria and/or dysphoria
* Increased appetite
* Increased libido
* Amnesia
* Impaired judgment and reasoning
* Increased impulsivity
* When stopped, rebound insomnia may occur
* Headaches, in some people
For example the Rozerem side effects in 2% of cases can lead to depression. Considering that some people may already have been suffering through sleep loss, potentially due to depression then something like Rozerem should be avoided.
Other pills such as Lunesta, which goes uner the name of Eszopiclone, can lead to things like unpleasant bitter or metallic taste, headaches, chest pain, cold-like symptoms, body pains, dry mouth, daytime drowsiness, lightheadedness, dizziness
It’s obvious with just a handfull of perscription pills covered in this post it’s clear to see that some of the more well known pills can lead to lots of unpleasant side effects.
So are there any alternatives and what should you be considering.
You can also opt for herbal varieties and although in some cases they are not as good as as perscription pills, at least you’ll know there are no nasty effects waiting for you around the corner.
