Top 10 Chinese patent medicines for sleeping and sedation

In life, whether it is stress or physical condition, it is easy for people to suffer from insomnia, depression and other conditions. The emergence of these reasons is closely related to endocrine abnormalities in the body. If this continues for a long time, it can easily cause illness. So once the situation becomes serious, it is best to take some sleeping pills and sedatives. Among them, Chinese patent medicine is more effective than Western medicine in treating this condition.

Sedatives have temporary sedative and hypnotic effects on the human body. It should be taken in moderation strictly according to the instructions or doctor's orders. Most sedatives are antipsychotic drugs and should not be abused. There is no clear distinction between sedatives and hypnotics, which have a sedative effect when taken in small doses, making a person calm. Sedatives help with sleep, the only difference is the amount. The appropriate amount of sedatives is beneficial to the patient's recuperation.

Sedatives are mainly used for the symptomatic treatment of mental disorders such as anxiety and irritability. Commonly used drugs include phenobarbital, meprobamate, chlordiazepoxide and diazepam. It is generally believed that the latter two drugs are less likely to cause respiratory and circulatory depression, have a wide safety margin, and are less likely to produce tolerance and addiction, and are therefore more suitable for sedation. The dosage should vary from person to person, with the minimum effective dose as the standard. The medication should be used for a short period of time, such as about a week. Once the condition improves, the medication should be stopped in time to avoid the formation of tolerance and addiction.

It should be pointed out that irritability and anxiety are more common in neurasthenia, and neurasthenia is often caused by long-term ideological conflicts or excessive mental burden, which leads to the disorder of the excitation and inhibition processes of the central nervous system. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out meticulous ideological work and help patients deal with their own conflicts. Improper abuse of drugs is unhelpful and harmful.
