I wouldn't rely too heavily on what people say on the internet. People with negative experiences are far more likely to post than people with positive ones. The same is true about experiences at restaurants, etc… I think the numbers there are something like for every 9 negative reviews there is only 1 positive one. When people get ****** off there is more of a drive to get on the computer and write something negative.

That doesn't mean the drug is necessarily great though. If there are tons of negative reviews, there are obviously tons of ****** off people… makes you wonder how many people take/have taken the drug to figure out the real percentage of unsatisfied patients.

You can find info on the percentage of people who stopped the med, and why, during clinical trials in the full patient drug guide from the manufacturer. It should be available on the internet if you search for "Silenor," or a different drug's brand name.

Also, meds work differently for different people. The people who posted negative comments about possible drug options for you, may have ended up having positive experiences with some of the meds that you haven't.
