Wow. I took a tylenol PM by mistake one Sunday afternoon. I had a headache and it was all we had.

I woke up 5am Monday.

That happened to me once during my undergrad. I had an early class, grabbed an Advil PM because it was dark, and spent the next hour and a half trying to pull a Tom & Jerry taped-open eyelids thing. I apologized profusely to my professor after class, because she was really strict about sleeping in class and it all turned out ok but I don't fuck with that stuff any more.

You might want to rethink them for transcontinental flights. Tylenol PM makes the flight to Narita shorter than the flight to SFO.

Possibly. I took (i think) Ambien for my flight to and from Jordan and it worked flawlessly on the trip out and then I woke up about halfway through on the flight back.

That's the nap that turns into an overnight sleep. Sometimes they're great, but mostly not.
