anxiety?
Insomnia sucks! Have you tried melatonin? 500mgs usually does the trick and its very mild. If that doesnt work there is always the presceiption route. Or warm milk, camomile tea, sex!!
3mg of melatonin helps a lot :)

Another combo?
I didn't know they make it in that dose. The largest dose I've seen is 10mg, which I do use on occasion.

Sorry people I miss spoke. I checked my Melatonin pill bottle and it is actually 500 Mcg's (micrograms) not milligrams. So, It is a very small dose.
the heat is unbearable during the day)..
And speaking of Melatonin, I caught this on the news today:
Relaxation Brownie:

The alternative to extra meds to ensure sleep, herbal or otherwise, is to change to a new combo. There are plenty of good and simple ones, including 1 x day options. Both management routes are valid.

Viramune can replace the Sustiva (one of the 3 drugs in Atripla). This would mean two tablets once a day (assuming you keep on the other 2 drugs in Atripla, tenofovir and FTC which come in one hand pill called Truvada). Also, Reyataz + a small ritonavir booster or (better to my mind) Prezista + a small ritonavir booster. This would mean either 3 or 4 pills once a day. There are more options but these are the main modern ones on general offer. Isentress/Truvada should also deliver a return to normal sleep patterns, but, strictly speaking, Isentress is a 2 x day med.
