What Are The Side Effects Of Taking Histatussin Simply To Sleep

What would be the potential negative effects of taking histatussin simply to sleep- not for any of the symptoms. I d really like to get back to my normal routine of waking early to study because I have exams soon, but I can t fall asleep early enough and end up staying up till morning. Can two teaspoons of the cough syrup be that bad?(I m 17 yrs if that makes a difference)

hey

u just want to follow sleep hygiene
like fix sleep schedule and stick on it
no day time sleep
avoid smoking drinking
no coffee and tea before sleep

do activities that control your stress that makes you feel relax
like
exercise
meditations
music
enjoy hobbies

you have exam s so so many tensions are there

if required than take zolpidam 5 mg at bed time
it will help you to get 6 hours sleep
but dont try day before exams

just fix schedule of reading and sleep
follow it carefully
get well soon
best luck for exam
thank you
take care
