Is Halcion still a widely prescribed drug?

Asked by silky1 (1510points) May 12th, 2011

Or have the newer sleeping agents taken over?

I didn’t see any Halcion in my nursing in Alberta from ‘98 on. I remember it having unpleasant side effects (from the 70’s).

It’s still around, but not commonly prescribed.
