Daridorexant
For insomnia
A newer kind of sleep medicine that quiets the wake signal.
In brief…
Daridorexant (brand name Quviviq) is a newer prescription medicine for long-term insomnia. Rather than sedating you, it blocks orexin, the brain signal that keeps you awake, and it carries a lower dependence risk than older sleeping tablets. NICE recommends it after talking therapy for insomnia has been tried or is unsuitable.
