I haven't tried it. But from what I've read after this thread started, I'd be very interested in doing so.
I'm not sure what I think about melatonin agonists-- rozerem doesn't do a lot for me. But I have severe issues with sleep, which of course contributes to a lot of stress and moodiness and bad days.
The studies I cited were US studies, by the way-- so I think they were meant for the US market. Was the problem bad results, or just not a long-term enough trial, in Europe? I had understood from what I saw that it was more that the Servier studies were short term, and the Europeans wanted evidence of long-term efficacy (and probably safety). You're right to be a little more pessimistic about getting anything to market here-- it often takes much longer than initially announced. Really beyond frustrating.
What are you using now?
