Try to buy flu/runny nose medicine. Ask for a drowsy version. Only less than RM3/strip. Works well for me. I find the brand PolarX works best.

By the way, I don't recommend taking pills to sleep. Years ago I had the same insomnia problem. You name it, I tried it. But I found something that works for me and me alone. I always imagine I am on a bus/plane, and the vehicle is in an accident and I got wheeled to a hospital. By the time I reach the imaginary hospital, I will fall asleep. Funny but true.

Sorry. The right name is Polarax. According to google search, it's Dexchlorpheniramine maleate. It's pink in colour and it looks like panadol for period pain one

Its a medicine for a blocked nose. I have a sensitive nose, and there are nights that I can't sleep due to nasal blockage. So I will take this before sleep.

During the day, I will take Clarinaise for the same effect but without drowsiness. Clarinaise is very expensive, the last I bought cost RM18/strip.
