Hello, and thanks for using PetCoach. I do not recommend giving Pepper any medication to sleep. She's still a baby, and is going through a lot of change and transition. What she needs is time, and patience. Give her a safe, dark, quiet place to sleep with a cozy blanket or other bedding. It may take her a few days to a few weeks to adjust, but she will figure things out. You may need to adjust your expectations a bit - medication is really not the solution here. Also, remember that she does not have a lot of bladder control at her age, and she may cry at night if she needs to go outside. Good luck to you!
