sleep medication

For people in the UK. What sleep medications (either prescription or OTC) for taking every night do you use that help you with sleep, and in what ways do they help you?

I am currently going through a pretty bad PEM episode (it's actually the first time I realise I have PEM; I used to call it 'a setback'). One of the symptoms is insomnia/sleep disturbances (trouble falling asleep and staying asleep). It makes sense to me that better quality sleep would support...

Good day everyone. - Generally - sleep is poor, disturbed and non-refreshing for our ME/CSF folk, yes? Is it the experience of the ME/CSF community folk that with a sleeping aid (sleep meds) do people 'feel' they had a bit of a better sleep and have a bit of a 'better' day? Thank you

One of my doctors informed me today that this drug has been recently approved by NICE and is going to try me on it for my sleep issues. He said it will help when I feel too wired to get to sleep. Other insomnia sufferers might want to consider speaking to their doctor about it.
