A number of nonbarbiturate drugs are available of which one of the best is probably nitrazepam (Mogadon) which is related to chlordiazepoxide (Librium) and shares with that drug a relative immunity from toxic effects of overdose.

However, it is by no means free of hangover and the other disadvantages of barbiturates, and although it will suit a number of patients, it may prove ineffe...

SNPs associated with several sleep phenotypes were suggested, but due to risks of false discovery, independent replications are needed before the importance of these associations can be assessed, followed by investigation of molecular mechanisms.

As for sleep, the patient ought to follow the natural custom of being awake during the day and asleep during the night, should this be changed it is rather a bad sign.

There is no single universal function of sleep, but rather a collection of synergistic functions that are each of varying importance to different species.

Evidence is reviewed that points to sleep as a time during which synthetic processes for growth and repair are enhanced, and REM (paradoxical) sleep seems especially related to increased synthetic processes in the brain.

In this review, theories proposing why sleep is necessary and supporting data demonstrating the effects of inadequate sleep are presented with the intention of gleaning further information as to its necessity.

The very best method to induce sleep is that of counting, Breathe deeply and slowly (without any straining effort) and, with every expiration, count one, two, three, etc., up to a hundred.
