Drug Uses
Unisom as a single drug (not part of a combination) is used as a short-term treatment for sleep problems (insomnia).
How to use
Take this medicine with food or milk if it upsets your stomach.
Drug Class and Mechanism
Unisom is an antihistamine that reduces the natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose.
Missed Dose
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. It is better to take Unisom only when you can devote several hours to sleep. If it is almost your normal waking hour, skip the missed dose and wait until you are ready for bed again. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.
Storage
Store Unisom at room temperature away from moisture and heat.
