Can I use an HSA or FSA to buy Unisom® SleepTabs®?
You may be able to use your HSA and FSA tax-preferred savings account to purchase Unisom® SleepTabs®. The passage of the CARES Act by Congress includes provisions to restore over-the-counter (OTC) eligibility under tax-preferred HSA and FSA accounts. Your plan details may vary, so save your receipt and check with your benefits or health provider for eligibility.
How does Unisom® SleepTabs® work? (mechanism of action)
Unisom® SleepTabs® active ingredient, doxylamine succinate, is a non-habit forming antihistamine that blocks certain natural substances (histamine, acetylcholine) that your body makes. The lack of histamine causes you to get drowsy and fall asleep quicker. As a result, you’ll get a good night’s sleep from Unisom® tablets.
Can I cut the tablet in half? Also, can I take half a pill?
Although the Unisom® SleepTabs® tablet is scored, we do not recommend breaking the tablet for smaller doses. We cannot recommend using this product in any way other than the labeling instructions.
Can you take more than 1 tablet at a time? If I take more product, will it work faster / better?
For adults 12 years of age and older, 1 tablet should be taken 30 minutes before going to bed, or as directed by a doctor. Do not exceed the labeled dosing. Use only as directed.
Can you take it with other sleep medications?
You should speak directly with your healthcare professional before taking any Unisom® products with other sleep medications.
