Pull over and catch some Z's if you have to. An hour or two of idling isn't going to hurt anything.

as others here have stated, it’s best to get proper rest so that you don’t risk your life or others. I had a very close family member die in an accident related to exactly this kind of scenario.

This is all probably too late (you were leaving the evening you posted your question), but I found the best thing is to pull over, and just get out of the vehicle. Pull into a truck stop, and walk around a little, go inside, take a P etc The walking around outside really wakes me up. Coffee and caffeinated drinks makes me have to P, so I use 5 hour energy drinks. For some reason, I don't have to P as often when I drink the 5 hour energy drinks as I do if I drink coffee or caffeinated soda.
