Do sleeping pills cause liver damage?

I heard that repeated use of sleeping pills can damage your liver. I thought that would only happen to someone who failed suicide with sleeping pills. I don't think its true because a lot of people take sleeping pills and not everyone is walking around with liver damage.

Which ones? Benzos don't as far as I know, but others might.

I was thinking more like zzyquil or melatonin.

That's diphenhydramine, which I don't think causes liver damage. It's the same stuff they use in motion sickness pills.

I don't think melatonin does either.
