How many hours of sleep is insomnia?

How does melatonin help me to sleep?
Melatonin is a natural hormone released in the body during the evening and night, signaling ādarknessā, associated with sleepiness and the sleep-wake cycle. Thereby melatonin facilitates the feeling of sleepiness and the ability to induce and maintain sleep.
Melatonin is a naturally occurring neuro-hormone mainly released from the pineal gland in the head in the evening and during the night. Melatonin signals ādarknessā, is associated with feeling sleepy, and regulates the sleep-wake cycle.
Individual levels of melatonin vary, but it has been found that otherwise healthy people suffering from insomnia often have lower levels of melatonin than people without insomnia, and that melatonin therapy ameliorates the symptoms of insomnia. CircadinĀ® is prolonged-release melatonin, which adds exogenous melatonin to the endogenous melatonin throughout the night, thereby facilitating the feeling of sleepiness, the ability to fall asleep, and improving sleep quality and daytime functioning.

What is the difference between CircadinĀ® and over-the-counter (OTC) Melatonin products?
CircadinĀ® is specially formulated such that it releases melatonin slowly throughout the night to keep you asleep (also known as a prolonged release tablet). OTC melatonin are formulated as immediate release tablets, and usually only stay in the body for much shorter durations.
What is the difference between CircadinĀ® and prescription-only sleeping pills?
Most prescription sleeping pills fall into the category of Sedative-Hypnotics. Some examples include:
These sleeping pills carry the risk of tolerance and dependence (or, addiction), and are thus recommended only for short-term treatment (generally less than 2-4 weeks) at low doses.
CircadinĀ®, however, has proven long-term safety data with no tolerance, rebound or withdrawal effects reported in clinical studies after 3 weeks, 26 weeks and 12 months of CircadinĀ® usage.
- Antidepressants - such as FluoxetineĀ (ProzacĀ®) and Escitalopram (LexaproĀ®)
- Benzodiazepines - such as Alprazolam (XanaxĀ®) and Lorazepam (AtivanĀ®)
- Z-drugs - such as Zolpidem (AmbienĀ®) and Zopiclone (ImovaneĀ®)
These sleeping pills carry the risk of tolerance and dependence (or, addiction), and are thus recommended only for short-term treatment (generally less than 2-4 weeks) at low doses.
CircadinĀ®, however, has proven long-term safety data with no tolerance, rebound or withdrawal effects reported in clinical studies after 3 weeks, 26 weeks and 12 months of CircadinĀ® usage.
