Common Use

Hypnite is a sedative-hypnotic medication commonly used to treat insomnia and other sleep disorders. It helps promote sleep by acting on the brain's neurotransmitters, improving sleep onset and quality.

Dosage & Direction

The recommended dose of Hypnite varies but is typically taken once daily, 15-30 minutes before bedtime. It should be taken orally with water, and dosage adjustments may be made depending on individual response and doctor's advice.

Precautions

• Use Hypnite with caution in individuals with liver or kidney conditions.
• It is not recommended for those with a history of depression or substance abuse.
• It may cause drowsiness, so avoid operating heavy machinery or driving after taking it.

Contraindications

• Do not use Hypnite if you have severe respiratory disorders or a history of sleep apnea.
• It is contraindicated for individuals with hypersensitivity to the drug.
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before use.

Possible Side Effects

• Common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, headache, and gastrointestinal discomfort.
• In rare cases, it may cause confusion, memory problems, or allergic reactions.

Drug Interaction

• Hypnite can interact with other sedatives, alcohol, and medications that affect the central nervous system.
• Such interactions may increase the risk of drowsiness and respiratory depression.
• Always inform your doctor of other medications being taken.

Missed Dose

If a dose is missed, take it only if there is enough time before sleep. If it's close to the next dose, skip the missed dose and take the next dose as scheduled.

Overdose

An overdose of Hypnite can lead to excessive drowsiness, confusion, and in severe cases, respiratory depression. Seek immediate medical help if an overdose is suspected.

Storage

Store Hypnite in a cool, dry place, away from direct light and moisture, at a temperature below 25°C. Keep it out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion.
