Notes

Not all sleep disorders require medication.They are often an expression of physical or mental illnesses and can be influenced by other measures or treatment of the underlying illness.Therefore, if sleep disorders persist for a long time, you should not undergo long-term treatment with doxylamine, but rather consult your doctor.By carefully and individually adjusting the daily doses, the frequency and extent of side effects can be reduced.The risk of side effects occurring is greater in older people.This can also increase the risk of falls for this group of people.After long-term daily use, sleep disorders can occur again more frequently if treatment is suddenly stopped.If you drink alcohol at the same time, the effects of doxylamine can be changed and increased in an unforeseeable way.Therefore, alcohol consumption should be avoided while using the medication.In patients with brain damage and known seizures, it should be taken into account that even relatively small doses can trigger seizures.Brain wave measurements are recommended for control purposes.Existing anti-seizure treatment should not be interrupted during treatment with the drug. EKG-Changes have been reported during treatment, so regular monitoring of cardiac function is recommended.This is particularly true for older people with previous heart damage.Particular caution is also required in the case of arterial hypertension, as this can cause an increase in blood pressure.If there is a tumor of the adrenal medulla, careful monitoring should take place.The results of skin tests may be distorted during treatment with doxylamine.
