I was just wondering what meds you all are using for sedation/sleep meds since seconal is no more.

Thanks all. I assume you knew I was referring to preggo ladies since I posted in this area right?? We actually are just now down to our last seconal. I know many have been without it for a long time.

Or Nubaine 10mg for sleep but those are all one time doses, not given every night.

on preggies, we use Vistaril, anywhere from 25 to 100 mg. works pretty well. Some may use Bendryl, 25-50 mg also. Considered relatively safe.
