Brief Answer:
You can take Lorazepam.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on HealthcareMagic.

I can understand your concern. You can try low dose Lorazepam 0.5-1mg at bedtime(you may need a prescription from your local physician).

It is good sedative drug with faster absorption so rapidly goes into blood stream.

Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health.
Thanks.
