Who qualifies for Circadin
Circadin is a prolonged-release form of melatonin, primarily prescribed for the short-term treatment of primary insomnia characterized by poor sleep quality in patients aged 55 years or older. When reviewing your case, a Hi-Doctor EU-licensed doctor will look for:
- Your age: Circadin is specifically indicated for patients 55 years and older.
- Symptoms of primary insomnia: Difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing non-restorative sleep.
- Absence of other underlying medical or psychiatric conditions that could be causing your insomnia.
- Your medical history and current medications to identify any contraindications or potential interactions.
The doctor will ensure Circadin is a safe and appropriate treatment for you before issuing a prescription.
What Circadin actually does (and doesn't do)
Circadin works by supplementing your body's natural melatonin levels, helping to reset and regulate your sleep-wake cycle. Unlike traditional sedatives, it doesn't force sleep but rather signals to your body that it's time to rest. This can lead to improved sleep quality and easier onset of sleep, particularly in older adults whose natural melatonin production may be reduced.
It is not a 'sleeping pill' in the conventional sense and is not intended for immediate, acute relief of severe insomnia. Its effects are typically seen over a short course of treatment, improving the overall quality of sleep rather than inducing instant drowsiness. Circadin does not treat insomnia caused by other medical conditions or lifestyle factors; it focuses on correcting the body's natural sleep rhythm.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, Circadin can have side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects may include headaches, nasopharyngitis (common cold symptoms), and back pain. Less common side effects can include dizziness, nausea, abdominal pain, and drowsiness. If you experience any persistent or bothersome side effects, you should consult a doctor.
You should stop taking Circadin and seek medical advice immediately if you experience:
- Signs of an allergic reaction (e.g., swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing, rash, itching).
- Unusual changes in mood or behaviour.
- Any other severe or unexpected symptoms.
Always follow your prescribing doctor's instructions regarding dosage and duration of treatment. Do not exceed the recommended dose.
