Suggest Treatment For Trouble Falling Asleep

Since two to three days I am not able to sleep properly. I slept about 3 to 4 hours and once I wake up, I am not able to get sleep. This is due to some tension in the family. I always get fear and do not sleep when ever I am little fear I cannot sleep. I am worried. What tab I should take to get proper sleep. Generally otherwise I use to sleep well. I am active in sports too. I take BP tablet o(concary 5)one and colestral( at heart) in the night. Pl suggest I am 57 years old

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Anxiety or stress is one of the causes for disturbed sleep or not getting sleeping at proper time.
You can overcome this by means of taking medications like Alpraxolam. But you need a doctor's prescription to buy it. Kindly take this medication only when it is absolutely necessary and not to make it a habit.
You can also try meditation techniques regularly which will help to ease your tensions and keep your mind healthy.
Also consuming certain foods like curd rice, banana, a glass of warm milk at bedtime would help to induce sleep and you would sleep better.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
