Sleep Medication Effects 

Insomnia can be a very frustrating condition to have.  Restlessness and tossing and turning during the night can be highly disruptive and harmful to your health.  Many people look to medications for a treatment or cure.  However, some medication may have a negative side effect.  Sleep medication effects include headaches, sleepiness during the day, dependence and resistance to the medications.  The effects of sleep medication are not usually severe but long term treatment is not advised.  A cure for insomnia may be found in a natural treatment.  Sleeping is very important to maintain good health.  A person can not function as well without a good night’s sleep.  The effects of not sleeping are often apparent in daily work.

Taking medications as a cure for insomnia may provide temporary relief for the problem.  However, continued use of sleeping drugs may have an adverse side effect.  Many natural remedies do not have as much of the potential for addiction or any other side effect.  However, care should be taken in utilizing any remedy, whether it is prescribed or over the counter.  To reduce risk of complications arising from use, always take remedies exactly according to the instructions of your doctor.  Attempt relaxation techniques to naturally induce sleep.
