Medication Management for Insomnia
Psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, is the first-line treatment for insomnia. In some cases, patients may also require medications to aid relieving insomnia symptoms.
Healthcare providers at Mental Health Tele.com can prescribe medications for severe insomnia online after a thorough evaluation of symptoms and health history.
The most common options include:
Benzodiazepines (BZD)
Benzodiazepines (Dalmane, Restoril, Doral, Halcion, Prosom) are FDA-approved for insomnia and are classified as Schedule IV controlled substances. They are usually used in short-term treatment because of the high risk for dependence and substance abuse.
Nonbenzodiazepine GABA agonists (Z drugs)
Nonbenzodiazepines (zolpidem (Ambien), zaleplon (Sonata), eszopiclone (Lunesta)) include sedative-hypnotics and CNS depressants, and as Schedule IV substances they require a prescription. They cause fewer side effects than benzodiazepines.
Melatonin agonists
Melatonin agonists for insomnia include melatonin (a dietary supplement, not under FDA regulations) and ramelteon (Rozerem)—an FDA-approved medication for onset insomnia.
Orexin receptor antagonists
Orexin receptor antagonists (suvorexant (Belsomra), lemborexant (Dayvigo), daridorexant (Quviviq)) work on binding orexins regulating sleep-wake cycles.
Over-the-counter (OTC) medicines
Benadryl (diphenhydramine) and Unisom (doxylamine) can also be recommended for insomnia treatment. They do not require a prescription, but it’s important to consult a sleep specialist before use.
Off-label medications for insomnia
Some antidepressants and antipsychotics can be used to manage the symptoms of anxiety and sleep deprivation. Common examples include mirtazapine (Remeron, Merck) and trazodone (Desyrel).

Insomnia Diagnostics: What’s Involved
Symptoms review
Healthcare providers use DSM-5 criteria to evaluate your symptoms and their impact on your well-being. You may be asked about your sleep habits, sleep-wake patterns, and external factors possibly impacting your sleep.
Sleep diary
You may be asked to note wake time and bedtime, caffeine intake, and other aspects during a few days to provide a clearer overview of your sleep patterns and issues.
Get Personalized Insomnia Treatment Based on Your Diagnosis
Acute insomnia
Acute insomnia is a short-term sleep disorder that lasts from several days to one month. The main causes include stress from new life circumstances (jet lag from travel, a new job, work deadlines, exams, relationship issues), excessive light or noise, or physical discomfort during the day or at night.
Chronic insomnia
Chronic insomnia is diagnosed if symptoms are noticed at least three nights a week for three months or longer.
Primary chronic insomnia occurs because of severe or recurrent concerns, worries, or stressors. It may last for years and worsen because of stress.
Secondary insomnia is caused by underlying medical conditions, such as asthma, allergies, chronic pain, diabetes, gastroesophageal reflux disease, heart disease, or mental health issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does COVID-19 cause insomnia?
Yes. Insomnia is one of the most common symptoms reported after recovering from COVID-19, particularly in patients who experienced a severe infection. It is often associated with “long COVID.” While research is still ongoing, post-COVID insomnia can last for several months—sometimes up to a year.
How is chronic insomnia treated?
Chronic insomnia often develops due to underlying physical or mental health conditions. Treatment begins with a thorough medical evaluation to identify contributing factors. Management may include sleep medications, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), relaxation training, regular physical activity, or other behavioral techniques. Some patients also benefit from herbal or dietary supplements under professional supervision.
Is insomnia curable or only manageable?
Insomnia is treatable. Many people experience significant improvement or complete resolution with proper treatment and consistent sleep habits. However, recovery depends on the root causes and the patient’s commitment to following their care plan.
What is the best treatment for insomnia in older adults?
Treatment for insomnia in older adults starts with improving sleep hygiene—maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, reducing caffeine, and creating a restful environment. A doctor may then recommend psychotherapy, medication, or a combination of approaches after reviewing overall health and existing conditions.
Is insomnia considered a mental health disorder?
Yes, insomnia is classified as a mental health condition, though it’s often linked to other medical or psychological issues. It can also result from stress, anxiety, or poor sleep habits. That’s why a detailed evaluation is essential to identify any underlying causes.
How do doctors diagnose insomnia?
Diagnosis typically involves a review of symptoms, sleep habits, and overall health history. In some cases, doctors may recommend a sleep diary, blood tests, home sleep tests, or overnight sleep studies to gather more information.
What medications are prescribed for insomnia?
Commonly prescribed medications include non-benzodiazepine GABA agonists (also known as “Z-drugs”) and benzodiazepines. Only a licensed healthcare provider can determine the right medication based on your specific symptoms and medical background.
What medications are used for long-term insomnia?
Benzodiazepines are frequently prescribed for long-term insomnia, although doctors may consider other medications depending on the patient’s needs, tolerance, and medical history. Continuous monitoring is essential to prevent dependency and ensure safe treatment.
