Hello
There are high chances that lonazep can cause dependence.
I would suggest you to take it on SOS basis when you arent able to get any sleep.
Practice some sleep hygiene tips:
Avoid daytime nap.
Avoid heavy fatty meals in dinner.
Dont consume tea coffee alcohol at bedtime.
Practice relaxation exercises like deep breathing and meditation.
Associate your bed with sleep only. Donot keep lying on bed idly.
Thanks
