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]
Treatment
Non-drug treatment
No-drug treatment has been reviewed.[3]
Indirect evidence suggests a warm bath may help.[4]
Exercise, perhaps by raising body temperature, may help.[4]
Medications
GABA agonists
These medications are agonists of the GABA-A receptors.
BZ1 selective agonists
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.[5]
In geriatrics, the benefits of zolpidem for insomnia to not clearly exceed the drug toxicity.[6][7]
Melatonin agonists
Ramelteon is one available agonist.
Tasimelteon can help transient insomnia due to shift changes related to employment..[8]
