Sleeping Aids

Medication should be withdrawn gradually and the patient should be aware of the possibility of rebound insomnia when stopping medication. Alcohol intensifies the side effects of all sleeping medication and should be avoided. If chronic insomnia is a companion to psychiatric problems, such as depression or anxiety, medication targeted specifically for these disorders, not sleeping pills, is appropriate.

Forty percent of all sleeping pills are taken by the elderly. Sleeping pills tend to be over-prescribed in nursing homes, where the institutional setting, nighttime light and noise, and the underlying medical problems of older patients worsen sleeplessness. It is in the staff's interest to have sleeping times as regimented as possible, so that care can be planned efficiently.

The chronic use of sleeping pills in the elderly, however, produces side effects, such as impaired memory and alertness, urinary incontinence, daytime sleepiness, and imbalance, that can make care even more difficult in the long run. This is an unfortunate condition brought on by financial constraints and limited resources for which there are no easy solutions.
