I've been using Benadryl (generic is just fine) for help sleeping for many years (not lately though ;) I don't take it regularly, as my body gets used to it and I don't get as drowsy.
It doesn't wear off in the middle of the night like Ambien or Sonata. If you haven't tried it before, you may want to start with one tablet (25 mg) to see how it works for you. For me, it takes longer for the drowsiness to kick in (about 1 hour) after taking it, than with other sleeping aids (usually about 15-30 min.)
But please stay away from the bulldozer and other heavy machinery when you take it ;)
