Do you have trouble sleeping?

Do you wake up in the middle of the night and cannot fall back asleep?

If yes, than you may have Insomnia. If you have insomnia, then you are not alone. It is a common sleep disorder. About 30% of adults have symptoms of insomnia.

Do you or someone you know live with sleep maintenance insomnia? The primary definition of sleep maintenance insomnia is waking from sleep for an hour or more during the night and having difficulty falling back to sleep.

People suffering from sleep maintenance insomnia commonly report symptoms such as:

  • Low energy
  • Lack of motivation

  • Extreme mood changes

We are currently conducting a clinical research study for a medication to see if it is safe and effective in treating individuals who experience sleep maintenance insomnia.
