In medicine, sleep initiation and maintenance disorders, including insomnia, are "disorders characterized by impairment of the ability to initiate or maintain sleep. This may occur as a primary disorder or in association with another medical or psychiatric condition."[1][2]


Epidemiology/causes

There are many underlying associations[3][4] including psychiatric disorders[5][4].

Diagnosis

While an extremely thorough history, including observations from sleeping partners or household members, is the proper starting point, a polysomnogram is often needed for the differential diagnosis.

Treatment

Randomized controlled trial of treatment options for insomnia.[6]
Treatment Outcome at 6 months
Responders Remitters
6 weeks of CBT 55% 40%
6 months of CBT 63% 44%
6 months of CBT
6 weeks of zolpidem
81% 68%
6 months of CBT
6 months of zolpidem
65% 42%
Adapted from Table 4 of Morin et al.[6]


Treatment options for geriatric patients have been reviewed.[7]

Non-drug treatment

No-drug treatments such as light therapy, exercise, and sleep-hygiene modification have been reviewed.[8]

A combination of education, sleep hygiene, exercise, and light therapy helped patients with Alzheimer's disease in the NITE-AD randomized controlled trial.[9]

Indirect evidence suggests a warm bath may help.[10]

Exercise, perhaps by raising body temperature, may help.[10]

Medications

GABA agonists

These medications are agonists of the gamma aminobutyric acid.

Nonselective BZ1 and BZ2 agonists
For more information, see: Benzodiazepine.


BZ1 selective agonists

These medications include zopiclone, eszopiclone, zolpidem, and zaleplon. In treating persistent insomnia in adults, 6 weeks of zolpidem 10 mg nightly along with weekly sessions of cognitive behavioral therapy followed by 6 months of monthly sessions and no medications yielded the most remission of insomnia in a randomized controlled trial.[6]

In geriatrics, the benefits of zolpidem for insomnia to not clearly exceed the drug toxicity.[11][12]

The benefit of eszopiclone may not be strong.[13]

Melatonin agonists

Ramelteon is one available agonist. Its magnitude of benefit may be small. among outpatients.[13]

Tasimelteon can help transient insomnia due to shift changes related to employment..[14]
