[The effect of Imovane on sleep structure and respiratory indices during sleep in insomnia patients].

Night sleep was examined in 120 patients with different forms of insomnia. The positive effect of Imovane was shown both on presomnic and intrasomnic disorders. Transitory side effects (dryness, bitter taste in the mouth) were in some cases that didn't need cessation of therapy. Polysomnographic studies confirmed effectivity of Imovane: there were observed either lengthening of the duration of sleep, its 2 stage, delta-sleep, or decrease of the duration of falling asleep. There were no respiratory changes after course of Imovane, meanwhile some indices positive dynamics was revealed in this case.
