This isn't my "2cents worth", it's my "10cents worth" 
.
If you have chosen to use pharmaceuticals, then I would suggest that you get to know the details of how your chosen meds work quite intimately.
This takes time and effort, but anything is worth a good night's sleep. A good place to start is by browsing through the Factsheets at Tripsit.
1) If you are an intransigent insomniac, don't expect a profound response from a tiny pixie dose.
2) Take your dose according to the timing onset of the med. If your med takes 1 hour to start working and you want to go to sleep at 10 pm, then take it at at 9pm.
Taking it at 6pm and hoping that you'll be really sleepy by 10pm is doomed to fail.
3) 'Mix it up' (I believe this is really under-rated)
For instancce, Tem@z3p@m one night, N1tr@z3p@m the next, @lpr@z0l@m the next, Z0Ipid3m the next, 3tiz0lam the next - this will discourage resistance to a very large extant.
And lastly, any stimulating drink after midday is not your friend (decaf coffee is fine) and if you are sensitive to booze (unfortunately) more than 1-2 alcoholic drinks at night can easily have you *bing* wide awake in the middle of the night - and the temptation will be to believe that meds have failed you - but in fact it was the Alcohol that screwed it up.
Try this formula and see how it works for you - and report back please - maybe there's a simple tweak that will resolve the issue entirely.
I worked long and hard to find this method which works well for me - I hope it works for you too - coz a good night's sleep makes Everything better.

There's a difference between having an opinion and having an informed opinion.
