Sedative insomnia

Condition Overview:

Insomnia is an occasional problem for at least a third of the population. For many, insomnia is not an isolated situation, but a chronic condition. Accurate diagnostic assessment is important, with a particular focus on the link between chronic insomnia and mood disturbances. With chronic insomnia, one can experience difficulties with concentration or performance in the workplace. Clearly, given that insomnia occurs commonly, the economic and social impact can be great. The treatment of insomnia should always include education and assessment of sleep behaviors. It may also include treatment with medication (pharmacotherapy). The use of medications in the treatment of insomnia should be flexible. It is important to assess the individual needs of the patient before making specific recommendations. Each patient needs to be evaluated by his/her physician, and individual treatment needs will vary.

Insomnia may be independent of other healthcare problems. However, it also may be a symptom of another problem, much like a fever or a stomachache. It can be caused by a number of factors.
