General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello there. I have read through your question and I can understand your concern. Insomnia can be due to many reasons listed ke stress , anxiety or depression. I would advise you to consult a psychiatrist for the same as if not treated properly it can become a chronic problem. Tab Alprax can be taken to induce sleep but it is a prescription drug and you should talk to your physician about it. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write.
