The FDA announced recently that it would require manufacturers of sleep aids to reduce the recommended dosages, since their use has been linked to an increment in car accidents.
Studies showed that up to 15% of women and 3% of men who took such drugs experienced significant psychomotor and memory impairment the next morning, leaving them unable to perform certain tasks such as driving.
On the other hand, herbal remedies like Valerian - which has anti-insomnia and anxiolytic properties - would make an optimal replacement to these drugs because of their milder side effects.
