Posted , 2 users are following.

hello,

My brother he couldn't sleep since 17 days till today/ finally he used diazepam 10 to sleep. 

He can eat normally and he is watching tv around 20 hours because he couldn't sleep.

Also he is using nisopred 5 and Dipyridamole 250m & he was using the Axabin 20m.

Beside he has Waist disc since 17 years so that's why he was using Naproxen 500m & methadone, but he had stopped the flowing medicine so suddenly he fall to not sleep anymore.

Also there are medical reports incase if you need we can post it here.

I would appreciated if you could help him ASAP!!!

    I cannot comment on the problem; others may be able to.   But diazepam 10 mg can be a short term solution.  I used to take it on very long flights so that I slept throughout the journey.  Your body can become accustomed to it (and addicted to it - its brand name is valium) so I would suggest it is not a long term solution

    Sorry, I really cannot offer any other comment.   You do not say in which country you are located though I guess English is not your first language.  Though some of the pills you mention may be obtainable through informal channels, were any supplied by your GP/doctor?  If so, what does he/she suggest?

    My sleep problem is totally different; I sleep TOO much

      Unfortunately all of those pills are prescribed by different doctors...

      I believe that some drug interactions have occurred..
