Do you Take a Sleeping Pill When You Fly?

A number of my friends have jobs that make them into road warriors. It is not uncommon for them to fly several times a week.

During a recent conversation one of them told me that when he flies he often takes a sleeping pill just before take off. I must have made a face because he told me that it is quite common for people to do this.

So I am curious to get your feedback. Is this accurate, do many people take a sleeping pill when they fly? Are you among them? Do you like it? Do you do it to prevent boredom or stress?

Inquiring minds want to know.
