 5  Insomnia(Wellbutrin Side effect) None that I can link to this particular medication I'm also on 3mg of melatonin and 450 Welbutrin XL I am taking 450 mg of Wellbutrin which has cut in to my sleep. The rozerem seems to do the trick, I also take it with Melatonin 3mg. This is non addicting and not a narcotic so this is a plus. Don't think there are any side effects. F 16 3 months

 2  insomnia none Rozerem did not seem to do much at all for me. I only took it for a few weeks so maybe I didn't give it enough of a chance, but I still was not sleeping well with it so I stopped it and went back to my standby, trazodone. F 27 3 weeks

 2  Insomnia Really didn't notice any side effects, except for vivid and wild dreams. You know, like Abe, the astronaut, and the woodchuck. Really didn't help me much at all. Bayer PM works as well. M 53 1 months

 4  Trouble falling to sleep If I didn't give myself a full (at least) 8 hours of sleep-- I felt slightly hungover... but just kind of tired... But that doesn't last long. I take Adderall and it keeps me from falling asleep sometimes... You can truly take it when you need it, and stop when you don't--- It doesn't screw up your sleep cycle... M 21 2 months

 3  Insomnia None so far. Been taking for 1-2 weeks. I took some samples from my doc, and did not have any positive results. I have been taking it for the last week, and it has worked great for the last 4 nights. I may have been having rebound from Lunesta before. It is still expensive ($45.w/BCBS), but I will give it a shot. I like the no side effects, so far anyway. M 52 2 weeks

 2  Temporary insomnia Headache, dizziness, drowsiness I am on 150mg of Wellbutrin XL and get frequent bouts of temporary insomnia. Rozerem helped me fall asleep but didn't keep me asleep...I still woke up once or twice during the night. The next day, I felt like I had the worst hangover of my life and that awful, disconnected, woozy feeling didn't go away until later on that afternoon. The next night, I was so worn out by the side-effects that I fell asleep on my own!!! F 32 1 days

 4  insomnia No side effects I started taking Rozerem while coming off of Ambien CR. My doctor said that Rozerem may work on the first night I take it, but its full effect is seen over about two weeks time. I have been taking it for two weeks now and although Rozerem does help me fall asleep, it does not help me stay asleep. I realize the drug is marketed this way, so I am okay with that. I have tried everything else for sleep and although some things work for a short time, over time they stop working. Rozerem is approved for long term use, take it when you need it and leave it when you don't, so I am hopeful this may help me in the long run. I definitely do not feel hung over in the morning like I have with other sleep medications. I also like that when I take it I do not feel sedated...I just fall asleep like a "normal" person. Now if only I could stay asleep! I will continue to take Rozerem; it has helped me. F 40 14 days

 1  Insomnia This stuff is garbage, it felt like somebody used my brain for a soccer ball and put it back in my head before i woke up. It took me till 6PM the next day just to get up amd be somewhat functional. I will stick to taking a half a zanex to get to sleep. Rozerem bad very bad. Stay away from Rozerem, try something else! M 38 1 days

 1  Insomnia No side effects except being kept AWAKE all night. Did not work at all. F 38 3 weeks

 2  Sleep This medicine made me not only nauseated but dizzy and i felt like i was in a coma all night and unable to wake up. It took me 45 mins just to make sense of my morning and left me sick to my stomach...I will stick to my xanax. I continued to wake up thru the night and was confused throughout the evening M 39 1 days

 1  insomnia Nightmares, lack of sleep. I felt like I did not sleep all night. I have tken Ambien with good results. Thought I would try Rozerem because it was something new without being adictive. Worst night in a long long time. Try something else before you ever try this drug. If I can help one person it would be worth this rating. I wanted to get your attention! M 56 1 days

 1  Wanted to be able to sleep longer Nothing. Not even drowsiness. The only good thing that this medicine has going for it is the commercial with the beaver in it. F 23 20 days

 1  Insomnia I had great results for two weeks.Now I take it and am WIDE AWAKE all night. Tonight was my last trial run. This is the 4th bad night in a week. I am positive the Rozerem has had an oppisite effect. Curse that Beaver! F 39 21 days

 1  insomnia This drug has totally destroyed my sex drive! My libido is shot and I cannot have an orgasm. Also, I'm feeling very sad and depressed much of the time---and not just because my sex life has tanked on this drug! I can fall asleep readily if I take Rozerem but I wake up in a few hours and cannot get back to sleep. I've taken Ambien for a long time and recently switched to Ambien CR. I'm going back to Ambien CR. Fewer side effects and I sleep much better. F 47 7 days

 1  to help me fall asleep None, except it didn't help me fall asleep at ALL! It didn't help me fall asleep at ALL! It's worthless - I've had to switch to Lunesta. F 39 20 days
