Alcohol is really bad and of course sleeping pills are the worst. Caffeine affects the receptors that make us tired and caffeine metabolism is individualistic for each of us.
I tend to think something provides a better result than nothing. The no sleep being better than some sensitive depends on the sedative. Sure, arrive a day early per hour of time change, but that is a luxury few have. So what to take? Or are you saying nothing? Not normally an option that results in poor results.
