The Role of Neurodrugs in Insomnia
There's nothing in the indication for these neurodrugs that suggest they should be taken away within a few weeks or a month or whatever. So we certainly can use them indefinitely if we need to. But you made the point earlier, how we should not do so unless the patient needs to do to continue these drugs for long periods of time. Not sleeping itself could be much worse and we're detrimental for a patient than the side effect of a sleep medication.
In this episode, Dr. Andrew Cutler interviews Dr. Karl Doghramji on best practices for the treatment and management of insomnia.
