Question
- Some people with onset insomnia are told by their doctors to wear sunglasses at night before going to bed. If effective, what would be the likely mechanism behind this?
- The retinohypothalamic tract (RHT) signaling to the pineal gland to start the production of melatonin
- A signal to your tuberomammillary nucleus to stop producing histamine
- This would trigger the lateral hypothalamus to decrease orexin production
- You blink more when you have sunglasses on, which initiates NREM1

The GPs need to cut down on the number of special order items that are issued on prescription in order to save costs. Melatonin is one such drug, melatonin can be ordered from a pharmacy’s regular supplier as the brand Circadin® 2mg modified release tablets which cost £15.39 per pack of 30 tablets whereas 1mg tablets that cost £89.96 for 60 tablets when ordered through a ‘specials’ supplier. At the moment there are 7 patients who are currently prescribed melatonin 1mg tablets, one to be taken twice a day. These 7 patients could be appropriately switched to Circadin 2mg. If the prescribers start to issue Circadin®, one to be taken once a day, how much will the practice save on all the patients with this change after 90 days?arrow_forward
