    Default B6 and Unisom

    If you have taken these, how many milligrams of each did you take? I'm curious.

    25mg of B6 up to 3 times a day, no more than 100mg per day and the unisom tablets (not gelcaps) should be the doxylamine succinate not the dextromethorpan and one tablet is 25mg, and you can cut it in half and take half at bedtime with the B6 or a whole one if you need it.

    I've been taking 100mg and half of a 25 mg doxylamine succinate tablet. Wasn't sure if a whole one would help me more or not. What I'm doing is working for the most part.

    If the unisom doesn't make you super drowsy you could take half at night and half in the morning. Also, spread the B6 out through the day. Another thing that helps is eating high protein snacks every couple of hours and avoid simple carbs.
