It only requires one tablet and is not as prone to tolerance building. Is more apt to assist the person to sleep allnight. Benadrl easily builds tolerance and sometimes causes middle of the night extended wakefulness.

For some reason gel caps work better, faster and makes me tired every time I take it. I break benadryl into 3 pieces but sometimes cannot sleep. Never taken sominex.

It just provides deep sleep while the others just make you drowsy.

It induces mental and muscular relaxation better than diphenhydramine, and you can take a smaller dosage.

not sure

I am sensitive to most drugs, prescription or otc. Sominex is the only sleep aid that does not make me feeled drugged then leaving me hung over the following day. It really does let me fall asleep naturally, feeling rested and refreshed in the morning (I know, I know, I sound like the commercials from years ago). I hart's been hard to find in local stores now, and when I recently needed a sleep aid,I had to purchase Unisom "THE #1 DOCTOR RECOMMENDED" sleep aid. I only used it once...the hung over feeling lasted for 2 days. I decided to check on-line and am relieved that it has not been discontinued.

This pill puts me to sleep fast. I feel so rested when I wake up due to having such a deep sleep.

I bought Unisom because Sominex was not available and it actually kept me up half the night. I felt like I had taken a stimulant instead of a sleep aid. Not sure why, but am tossing and getting more Sominex.

Keeps me asleep and I can easily wake up, unlike Unisom which keeps me drowsy for a few hours upon waking.

a dog wouldn't take a **** on Unisom.

a man wouldn't intentionally urinate on Benadryl.

six out of three hundred rhesus monkeys have taken Sominex, and all have slept well.
