Unfortunately my GP only gives my mother Aricept and no sleeping tabs cus he says my mum would lose her balance, so instead half a Quetiapine at night I said forget about the half at night cus they r imposs to cut without the other half being losses. But every month I ring up for repeat prescription it's the same thing it's only half one at night it's crazy really is plus they don't seem to work for sleep.
You really need the support of your GP - ours was very good. Also wouldn't prescribe sleeping tabs for the same reason - understandable but we found that 2 paracetamol in the evening made a big difference to a night's sleep and lots of others on here find that for some reason it does have a settling effect. It's worth a try and apparently doesn't interfere with other meds.
If your GP isn't listening then perhaps it is time to change GPs? or can you get a re- referral to the memory clinic and explain the day care panic situation and ask if they can help/suggest
Try the paracetamol
