Brief Answer: No problem with single dose. Detailed Answer: Dear Friend. Hi , I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern. Taking a single dose of combiflam and Stilnoct is not going to effect your health. But you should avoid using them frequently as we easily get addicted to them. You won't even come to know that you have got addicted to sleeping pills! In case you have difficulty in sleeping everyday, than tell me. Else, if you had just taken it yesterday, it's allright. Just avoid taking them again. Combiflam can cause little gastritis. In case you are having that, let me know. This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any query you may please ask me. Stay Healthy. Dr Anshul Varshney , MD

Brief Answer: Relaxation Therapies. Detailed Answer: Dear Friend. In this way you will get addicted to it. By saying addiction we don't mean to say that you enjoy taking it. It means you won't be able to fall asleep without medication in future. I would advise you to visit a Psychologist and get relaxation therapies and behavioral therapies. I don't recommend any medication to fall asleep. If you work hard and your mind is calm you will fall asleep by yourself. This is my best advise for you. Still if you have any query please ask me. Else please close the discussion and rate it. Stay Healthy.
