I agree with Keith -- the newer non-benzodiazepine sleep-aids (i.e. zolpidem [Ambien], zopiclone [Sonata], and zaleplon [Imovane]) have much less great a propensity to lose their hypnotic effect, even taken every night.
Mirtazapine, TCAs, etc. are OK options, but they quickly lose their hypnotic effects as well as it is attributed to anticholinergic/antihistaminic activity. You could get very similar results with Benadryl.
