Hi ! Everyone working in night shifts are facing same type of problem. The change needs time, and as time passes your body will get use to it. And of course night is meant for sleep as the law of nature ,so working against it will need some time to adjust. No need for any type of Medication,as it might further hamper your efficiency in night too.
