My post is correct.

I have 1 mg xanax which gives me around 10 hours sleep. Xanax dosage: Form, strengths, how to take, and more doctor says otherwise. 

 

Max strength is 2mg per tablet...  Of course Ralf001 takes 5 of those... 

...   If anyone is perplexed by his posts - theres the answer !!!!

I suffer from IBS and my doctor prescribed me 10mg amatryptaline for long flights so that I don't have to keep going to the toilet. You maybe know that Amatryptaline in larger doses is an antidepressant but has a side effect of calming the bowel. So it is prescribed and works as such in a a lower 10mg dose. It also seems to work with me as a sedative and over 18 years has always helped me sleep on my flights to and from Thailand. And It is available over the counter at pharmacies in Thailand. My flight routine is a can  of beer before the in-flight meal, a glass of wine with the meal and then take my amatryptaline with 400 mg ibuprofen to kill the pain of the sleeping  in seat yoga...555.

Yeah 1mg does nothing for me.

I take 10mg daily, prescribed.

My flight TRAVEL TIME to USA run between 28 to 34 hours.  I manage to get sleep in tourist class because the last LONG legs are over the Atlantic to Chicago OR over the Pacific to Chicago and then a short hop to Cincinnati.

ok, this is off (my own) topic but one day…ONE day, in our lifetimes, there will be direct flights between BKK and the U.S.  It was close a few years ago, from what I understand, but alas….

 

Something to wish for 🙏

Sounds like an healthy combo

I'm wondering how many times he crapped himself in his sleep !!!

I usually go for a generic Nyquil Xstrength...a couple swigs before boarding and another later.

Available OTC in Thailand?

1mg Lorazepam is good for a restful sleep, it’s short acting, and helps with jet lag too.
