Answer #1

i would suggest just listening to what your doctor told you. you can call and ask if you should take them asap or later on. just make sure to ask your doctor questions when you’re able to and listen to what he/she tells you.

Answer #2

If your sleeping again what would the point be in taking them now? They were prscribed to you because you couldnt sleep, if your sleepy all the time now taking the pills isnt going to make things any better. You need to get back into a normal routine, making yourself go to bed at normal times and not sleeping in. Pills arent always the answer and considering how addictive sleeping pills can be i wouldnt take them unless it was a last resort.
