I have read through most of the Phenergan opinions on this site and was very surprised to see that no one has written about the "Phenergan Night Time Tablets".
Several months ago I had a very severe pain on the right hand side of my body around the top of my leg. The pain was most severe in the night and I used to have great difficulty in sleeping.
As you may be aware from some of my previous opinions I travel to West Africa a lot and one of my trips I picked up some Diazepam Tablets 5mg from one of my friends pharmacies. These tablets are basically the generic form of Valium. Although I hardly ever used to use these tablets I am one person who always like to keep a stock of everything for any sort of emergency because you never know when you might need it.
When I started experiencing these pains my first thought was to take these Diazepam tablets. However as many of you might be aware these Valium tablets, although effective, are very addictive and once your body gets used to it you will find it extremely difficult to gain sleep normally without them.
It was in this regard that I started my search for an alternative medicine that could do the job and that was not addictive. I found my choice at Pharmacy2U and these were the "Phenergan Night Time Tablets".
They come in packs of 14 tablets and go for £2.47 for the pack.
The normal dosage is one tablet at night but this can be increased to two tablets if required. I personally did take two tablets for the first three days and then reduced it to one tablet as my pain subsided.
As is the case with all Phenergan products, such as the normal tablets and the syrup, this contains Promethazine Hydrochloride. In the case of these tablets it contains 25 mg of it.
This ingredient is the one that brings about drowsiness and induces sleep.
It worked splendidly for me and I am all praises for this product.
It is also very inexpensive and I stopped taking them after 7 days. After stopping them I thought that I may suffer from drawback symptom but this was not the case.
So for all of you out there you may have occasional sleeping problems please do try this relatively new product. It worked pretty well on me and I am not a happy person to please when it comes to medicines.

Phenergan is often prescribed as an antihistamine in people suffering from severe 'irritating allergic' skin conditions because of its powerful sedative effect. It certainly has a sleep inducing effect and personally I found it had the most horrendous side and morning after effects of virtually any drug I have taken (which do include at one point Temazepam and Valium) - glad you found them of use, most people I know who have taken them, wouldn't touch this drug again with a bargepole.
