Careful:
Because sleep disorders can be symptoms of physical and/or psychological disorders, symptomatic treatment of insomnia should only be initiated after careful assessment of the patient’s condition. If insomnia does not resolve after 7-10 days of treatment, this may indicate the presence of an underlying psychiatric and/or medical condition that should be investigated. Worsening insomnia or the appearance of new abnormalities in thinking or behavior may be the result of an undiagnosed mental or physical disorder. Such results have occurred during treatment with sedative-hypnotics. Because some of the significant side effects of sedative-hypnotics appear to be dose-dependent (see PRECAUTIONS and DOSAGE AND DIRECTIONS), it is important to use the lowest possible effective dose, particularly in elderly patients. visit now
