General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

If you have stomach problems, especially acid reflux, this may affect your sleep and cause you to have problems with sleep as well.
I would recommend you to start Nexpro again as this reduces stomach acid and reflux. You may also need to have frequent small meals and avoid food or fluids 3-4 hours before bed.
As for sleep, you may try sleep hygiene and recommendations on good sleep and if this does not help enough you may take Zolpidem at night as this is not much related to dependence.

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

Regards,
