Suggest An Alternative Of Diazepam
I have been taking diazepam for over 20 years for times when I can t sleep. I have tried the over-the-counter pills for sleeping, but they do not work. My doctor recently only refilled my prescription for 1 month. He had been refilling my prescriptions for 6 months. Is there anything that I can take in place of diazepam? Thank you, GB

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You can try Zolpidem, a newer drug with much less side effects and no hangover. It is available under the brand name Zolfresh. You can also try congeners of Diazepam like Clonazepam or Alprazolam.
Wishing you good health.
