Compounded Medications for Insomnia
Personalized support through customized compounded medications.
At AllMedRx, we prepare compounded medications for insomnia based on your provider’s prescription and your individual needs.
Understanding Insomnia
Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by persistent difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing restorative sleep despite having adequate opportunity for rest. Insomnia can result in daytime fatigue, difficulty concentrating, mood disturbances, and reduced quality of life.
Insomnia may be acute (short-term, often related to stress or life events) or chronic (occurring at least three nights per week for three months or longer). It can exist as a primary condition or occur secondary to other medical conditions, medications, mental health disorders, or substance use.
Common contributing factors include stress, anxiety, depression, irregular sleep schedules, poor sleep hygiene, caffeine or alcohol consumption, certain medications, chronic pain, and underlying medical conditions. Effective insomnia management typically includes a combination of sleep hygiene improvements, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), and when appropriate, medication.
Insomnia is typically evaluated by a licensed healthcare provider through sleep history assessment, sleep diary review, evaluation of contributing factors, and when necessary, sleep studies or other diagnostic testing.
If you are experiencing persistent sleep difficulties, it is important to speak with your provider for proper evaluation and guidance.
Common Symptoms and Types of Insomnia
Primary Symptoms
Types of Insomnia
Everyone experiences insomnia differently. Personalized compounding may be considered when commercially available medications or formulations do not meet a patient's specific needs.
Medications for Insomnia: Treatment Options
Insomnia is often managed through a combination of non-pharmacological interventions (including cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, sleep hygiene education, and relaxation techniques) and medication when appropriate. Your provider will determine which options are suitable based on your insomnia type, duration, underlying causes, medical history, and treatment goals.
Common Types of Insomnia Medications
Medications such as zolpidem, eszopiclone, or zaleplon may be prescribed by healthcare providers for short-term management of sleep onset or sleep maintenance insomnia.
Options such as ramelteon may be used to help regulate the sleep-wake cycle, particularly for sleep onset insomnia, depending on the patient’s presentation and provider recommendation.
Medications that block wakefulness-promoting orexin receptors may be prescribed for insomnia, particularly sleep maintenance difficulties.
Low-dose antidepressants with sedating properties may be used for insomnia, particularly when co-occurring depression or anxiety is present.
Antihistamines or melatonin supplements may be recommended for occasional or mild sleep difficulties.
In certain situations, benzodiazepines may be prescribed for short-term insomnia management, though long-term use requires careful monitoring.
Depending on individual needs, a provider may prescribe medications to address both insomnia and underlying contributing conditions. Compounding may allow certain medications to be combined into one formulation if prescribed.
