At 75 years old, it is important to consult your doctor before taking any medication daily, especially sleeping pills. Your doctor can identify the root cause of your sleep problems, evaluate your overall health, and recommend appropriate diet and lifestyle measures. If needed, they can prescribe medication safely, with the right type, dose, and schedule for your age and condition. Do not self-medicate daily, even if the pill helps you sleep.

These medicines should not be stopped suddenly, especially after long-term use, as this may cause withdrawal symptoms. The dose needs to be reduced gradually under medical supervision to avoid problems. Anxiety symptoms may return in some people if treatment is stopped too quickly. Consult her doctor to create a safe plan for slowly reducing and stopping the medicines.
