I've put on weight since I started taking half a dose at night. It has been effective mostly but I'm concerned about the weight gain.

Hi Tulip! I take 100 mg at bedtime to sleep as cannot sleep without it. I take it in combination with 2 mg of Clonazepam. It does make me hungry. I know it so I just read until I fall asleep. I always take it while I am already in bed. I read and then fall asleep so as not tempted to eat since I know it makes me feel like I am hungry and don't give in to temptation to eat. Hugs and prayers. God bless.
