Not sure if this is a good idea. Personally my experience of drugging my body to rest doesn't work as I build up tolerance to the drugs (even if I rotate them) and my sensitivity to drugs means I get side effects.
It sounds too much like the dangerous sleep therapies tried out on PWME in the 90s. I've met survivors of this including one woman who went from the sleep clinic to a psych hospital.
Here's a report of one doctor who was doing this to ME patients. I was seen at his Charing Cross clinic. There they tried to convince me to become a private patient and be drugged for a week as a "cure".

and some more info on sleep therapy (which I think it was based on)
