Sominex One a night tablets

What is Sominex?

Sominex is a short-term sleep aid containing promethazine hydrochloride, an antihistamine that helps relieve occasional sleeplessness and supports a more restful night’s sleep.

What is insomnia?

Insomnia is another term for the inability to get to sleep or to stay asleep. Many people will experience insomnia at some point in their life and it can have many different causes.

Some causes of insomnia may be:

  • Stress, anxiety, depression or other mental health conditions.
  • Caffeine or other stimulating substances or activities before going to bed.
  • Sleeping environment
  • Physical health conditions
  • Some medication

The NHS website offers useful sleep advice. Some people find that making small lifestyle changes can help them get more rested nights sleep.

How to Take Sominex

Take one tablet 20 minutes before bedtime.

Do not exceed the recommended dose.

Sominex or Nytol

Both Sominex and Nytol are brands of sleeping tablets that contain antihistamines that make you drowsy to promote sleep. Both tablets you can buy without a prescription here at the Independent Pharmacy.

The difference between the two brands of sleeping tablets is that Sominex contains the antihistamine promethazine hydrochloride whereas Nytol contains diphenhydramine.

Sominex and Nytol work in the same way and have similar side effects associated with taking them. It is recommended that with both medications you do not take them for more than 2 weeks. If you are unsure about which medication to take, speak to a doctor or pharmacist for advice.

How does Sominex work?

Promethazine has sedating properties that help reduce alertness and restlessness, making it easier to fall asleep when your normal sleep routine is disrupted.

How long do I use Sominex for?

It is intended for short-term use only. If sleeplessness persists for more than a few days, seek medical advice.

Can I take Sominex with alcohol?

No. Alcohol can increase drowsiness and make side effects more likely. Avoid drinking alcohol while using Sominex.

Will Sominex make me drowsy the next day?

Some people may feel residual drowsiness. Avoid driving or operating machinery if you feel sleepy the next morning.

Can I use sominex whilst pregnant or breastfeeding?

No. Sominex is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Speak to a healthcare professional for suitable alternatives.

Common side effects of Sominex

Common side effects include drowsiness, dry mouth, blurred vision, or dizziness. If you experience severe or unusual symptoms, seek medical advice.
