I've been having trouble sleeping for less than three hours for the past two years. I've tried alprax, Clonafit, and other medications, but nothing has helped. Could you perhaps suggest some prescription for my insomnia?

Long-term severe Insomnia that hasn?t improved with medicines like Alprax or Clonafit needs a different approach rather than adding more sedatives. The most effective treatment is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia, along with strict sleep habits (fixed timing, no daytime naps, avoid screens/caffeine at night). A doctor may consider safer options like Melatonin or other non-habit-forming medicines after evaluation. Please consult a psychiatrist or sleep specialist to find the exact cause and plan proper long-term treatment.

I have been suffering from chronic constipation for 4-5 years and currently take Sompraz-L capsules in the morning and Eva Q fibre powder at night. I also suffer from severe insomnia and have become dependent on taking a Clonafit Beta tablet every night for the past year to sleep. How can I safely stop taking Clonafit Beta, and what alternative medications can help me manage my sleep without causing dependency?

Stopping Clonafit Beta (Clonazepam + Propranolol) abruptly is unsafe and can cause severe withdrawal. You must work with your doctor to gradually taper the dose over several weeks. For sleep, non-habit-forming alternatives include Melatonin, low-dose sedating antidepressants (like Mirtazapine or Amitriptyline), or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). Additionally, please discuss your chronic constipation with your doctor; both Clonafit Beta and the Levosulpiride in Sompraz-L can affect gut motility and potentially worsen constipation. Your physician can safely guide your taper and optimize your GI medications.
