There should be a leaflet inside the box which will mention side effects.
P.S I am depressed and on sleeping tablets. | |

Yes it horrible stuff, I suffer from insomnia and was given this by the doc a few years back.
The side effects for me included a hangover type effect the next day and a god awful taste I can only describe as bitter-metal in your mouth for the whole of the next day that taints the taste of everything, and I mean everything.
The only thing is they really do work - knock you into next week and thats half a tablet but I just put up with lack of sleep instead, side effects are crap. Try a few natural alternatives instead.

I wish my doctor would give me new drugs. All I seem to ever get is Amoxicillin by the barrel load.
"Sore knee, doctor"
"Here have some Amoxicillin, that'll sort it out"
"I'm also blind in one eye"
"Ach we'll just double the dose"

Please don't accidentally overdose, we, the internet as a collective, are here for you

All the cool kids take sleeping medication at parties these days!
