Tylenol PM / Benadryl / OTC Sleep Medications

[[Fi...]]

I take 1 or 2 Tylenol PM at bedtime - will that interfere with Benzo taper?

 

I just read about anticholinergic meds, and apparently that's what these re.

I cant give you an answer on the Tylenol PM. But i can say what has worked for me is Hydroxyzine (prescribed Benadryl). I take 25 to 50mg an hour before bed and they work ok. I wake feeling groggier but will take that over no sleep. I also take Magnesium Glycinate and some CBD broad spectrum. Occasionally, i’ll take less Hydroxizine and mix in a 5mg Melatonin (trying not to become over dependent on Melatonin as well). Generally this has worked and so far i range from 5-7 hours a night. On weekends i can sleep 8-9 hours.
