Insomnia program

The Insomnia program may include low-dose doxepin, usually 3–6 mg, only if a licensed physician prescribes it. Your prescribing physician and pharmacy label determine your dose and schedule. Do not choose or change your dose yourself. The program also includes weekly cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, called CBT-I, lessons.

Complete the Insomnia program’s weekly CBT-I lessons and follow the sleep plan you are given. Take medication only if prescribed, exactly as your prescribing physician and label direct. Low-dose doxepin is generally taken near bedtime, with enough time for a full night of sleep. Avoid alcohol.

If you miss doxepin in the Insomnia program, follow your prescribing physician’s instructions and pharmacy label. Do not double a dose or take it when you cannot get a full night of sleep. If you miss a CBT-I lesson, resume the lessons and ask for guidance if needed.

If the Insomnia program includes doxepin, possible side effects include sleepiness, nausea, and dizziness. You may feel less alert the next day. CBT-I sleep schedule changes may also cause temporary tiredness. Contact your physician about bothersome symptoms. Seek urgent help for breathing trouble, severe allergic symptoms, or dangerous sleep behaviors.

Yes. Doxepin prescribed through the Insomnia program can interact with other medicines and alcohol. Avoid alcohol, and have your physician review all prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, and supplements. Other sleep aids, opioids, and sedating allergy medicines can increase drowsiness. Do not start or stop another medicine without checking first.

Store Insomnia program medication exactly as the pharmacy label directs. Doxepin is generally kept at room temperature, away from excess heat and moisture. Keep it in its labeled container, out of reach of children and pets. Ask the dispensing pharmacy about storage, expiration, or any damaged delivery.

The Insomnia program does not have one set timeline. CBT-I skills usually take practice over several weeks, while prescribed doxepin may affect sleep sooner. Results vary. Doxepin mainly helps with staying asleep. Track your sleep and discuss ongoing symptoms with your physician rather than increasing medicine on your own.

Talk with your prescribing physician before stopping Insomnia program medication. Whether you need a dose change or a stopping plan depends on your prescription and health history. Do not create your own taper. You can discuss keeping CBT-I skills in your routine even when medication is no longer needed.

You may be able to switch to the Insomnia program after a licensed physician in your state reviews your current treatment. Do not stop, overlap, or replace sleep medicines yourself. Some medicines need a gradual taper or a waiting period. Share your exact doses and when you last took them.
