Take this medication exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider, typically shortly before bedtime. Follow the recommended dose and schedule, and avoid taking more than directed. Do not combine with alcohol or other sedatives unless advised by your doctor. If you miss a dose, follow your healthcare provider’s guidance rather than doubling the next one. Use only for the duration recommended to avoid dependency or tolerance.

Common side effects may include drowsiness, dizziness, headache, or mild gastrointestinal discomfort. Some users may experience temporary grogginess or memory issues the next morning. Rare but serious effects can occur, including allergic reactions, sleepwalking, or unusual behavior during sleep.
Seek medical attention immediately if you experience difficulty breathing, chest pain, severe confusion, or signs of an allergic reaction.
