I'm under sever stress due to family concerns. Have been unable to fall asleep and STAY asleep for months. My physician recommended I try this instead of a prescription and it's worked very well. I do find, however, that I need to take it about an hour before bedtime AND ensure that I have 9 hours of sleep time. Usually I sleep a solid 8 hours, but occassionally I crash and sleep for 9 hours.

When I take it, it seems to work OK. My question is how often can I take it to not have any problems?

I sleep very well except recently have been getting night sweats. I’m 86 so I don’t believe they are menopausal ,

I took this last night for the first time and after about an hour I thought I was going to jump out of my skin! Could not shut my eyes. When I did I started feeling panicky and my heart was pounding. I will never take it again.

I have been taking an over the counter sleep aid for a couple of years now. Not only Tylenol pm but others as well. Recently my ENT did some allergy testing and I had to come off any sleep aids for at least a week before. I thought I was losing my mind. My legs and buttocks ached and I was very agitated and irritable. Could not figure out what was going on with me. My daughter is a nurse and had stopped by and started checking things out. Turns out I was having withdrawals from the sleep aids. I will never take any of those again. I am trying different natural sleep aids now, such as Valerian root and melatonin. Just be careful about taking any of this over the counter sleep stuff. Could be dangerous. I was told it was not habit forming or addictive but obviously it is.Read More Read Less

I suffer from PTSD & Anxiety. I have been taking Tylenol PM for nearly 2 years now in order to sleep. The past couple weeks I have been having more nightmares than usual. Is this a side effect from continuous use?

Tylenol PM only provides one to two hours sleep and inability to regain sleep afterwards.

I have tried several prescription sleeping aids and none work as good as Tylenol PM. I was worried about being addicted to prescription sleeping pills so when my sister recommended Tylenol PM I was so glad it worked so well. I take it every night about an hour before bedtime. I have taken it every night for almost two years. It still works great. I have been told that you can't become addicted to Tylenol PM. So far no bad side effects either.

I took Tylenol PM to get better sleep. It works O.K, but next morning I had severe nose bleed. Does the Acetometaphine cause the excessive bleeding?

I tried Tylenol PM after my doctor recommended it for my insomnia because it's non-habit forming. But it has been ineffective for me. I tried it for three nights. Needless to say, this is why I'm writing this review at 4:14 a.m.

I've noticed that I am having vivid nighmares when I take this. Don't know if this is common.
