Lebrexan user manual: Optimal time to take + dosage adjustment guide
Share
🌙 Insomnia is troubling more and more people, and Lemborexant, as a new type of insomnia treatment drug, has gradually been favored by doctors and patients due to its unique mechanism of action and fewer adverse reactions. However, many people still have questions about how to use Lemborexant correctly. Today, we will analyze in detail the best time to take Lemborexant and the dosage adjustment method to help you use the drug scientifically and improve your sleep quality.
🔍 1. What is Lebreccia?
Lebrexan (trade name: Dayvigo) is a dual orexin receptor antagonist that helps patients fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer by inhibiting orexin (a neuropeptide secreted by hypothalamic neurons) in the brain . Compared with traditional benzodiazepines, Lebrexan is less addictive and has less residual effects the next day, making it suitable for patients with long-term insomnia.
✅ Advantages :
● 🌿 Closer to natural sleep mechanism
● ⚖️ Low dependency
● 🚫 Less dizziness and fatigue the next day
⏰ 2. The best time to take Lebrexan
(1) 🛌 Take 30 minutes before bedtime
Lebrexan takes effect quickly and is usually recommended to be taken within 30 minutes before bedtime to ensure that the drug has started to work when you lie down. If you still carry out activities (such as playing with your phone or watching TV) after taking it, it may affect your ability to fall asleep.
(2) ⏳ Ensure 7-8 hours of sleep
Since the half-life of Lebrexan is about 17-19 hours, if you do not get enough sleep after taking the drug (such as less than 7 hours), you may feel sleepy or dizzy the next morning. Therefore, it is recommended to take it at night when there is no emergency and ensure adequate sleep time.
(3) Avoid taking with high-fat meals
High-fat foods may delay the absorption of the drug and affect its efficacy. Therefore, avoid eating greasy late-night snacks before taking Lebroly to ensure that the drug takes effect quickly.
⚖️ 3. Dose adjustment of Lebrexant
The standard dose of Lebrexant is 5 mg or 10 mg , and the specific dose needs to be adjusted according to individual circumstances:
(1) Initial dose: 5 mg
● Suitable for most adult patients with insomnia , especially those who are using the drug for the first time or are sensitive to sedatives.
● If 5mg is not effective, it can be increased to 10mg under the guidance of a doctor.
(2) 👵 Dosage adjustment for special populations
● Elderly people (over 65 years old) : Due to slower metabolism, it is recommended to start with 5 mg and adjust the dose carefully.
● Patients with impaired liver function : 5 mg is recommended for patients with mild or moderate liver damage , and should be avoided in patients with severe liver damage.
● Patients with renal insufficiency : Generally, no dosage adjustment is required, but patients with severe renal disease need to follow the doctor's advice.
(3) How to determine whether the dosage needs to be adjusted?
● If the effect of 5 mg is not obvious (such as still having difficulty falling asleep or waking up easily), consider increasing the dose to 10 mg.
● If obvious drowsiness or dizziness occurs the next day , the dose can be reduced to 5 mg or consult a doctor.
● Avoid increasing or decreasing the dosage on your own , especially for long-term users. Adjustments should be made under the guidance of a doctor.
⚠️ 4. Precautions for using Lebrexan
(1) Avoid taking with alcohol
Alcohol can enhance the sedative effect of Lebrexan, which may cause excessive sleepiness or respiratory depression. You should avoid drinking alcohol while taking this medicine .
(2) 😴 Beware of sleepiness the next day
Some patients (especially when taking it for the first time or at a higher dose) may still feel sleepy the next morning and should avoid driving or operating precision equipment .
(3) ⏳ Not suitable for short-term or temporary insomnia
Lebrexan is more suitable for patients with chronic insomnia . For temporary insomnia (such as jet lag), it is recommended to choose short-acting sleeping pills.
(4) Avoid sudden discontinuation of medication
If you need to stop taking Lebrosen after long-term use, you should gradually reduce the dosage to avoid rebound insomnia.
