Can I Take Circadin CR For Sleep Instead Of Valium?

I have some left over tablets that were my wife, they are Circadin CR 2mg, can I take them for sleep instead of Valium of 5mg prescribed to me. 2Same as above Zolpidem 10mg marked strong sleep, I would only use should I be in great pain. 3 Allopurinol 300mg which I feel are for gout but need to check before disposing at chemist.
