Hello, Welcome to Health Care Magic

Doxepine is Tricyclic antidepressant drug used for sleep. The drug has different mechanism of action than Temazepam. Temazepam is a benzodiazepine drug. If you have spilled the bottom of Doxepine and have prescription of Temazepam then the drug can be used without fear. You can take it.
