Hi,

Zolfresh is a sedative-hypnotic commonly prescribed to treat sleep problems (insomnia). Generally, it is well tolerated by most of the patients however it may cause drowsiness, myalgia, visual disturbances, and hallucination. It may be taken after gradually stopping restoril.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
