| Description | Ramelteon is the first in a new class of sleep agents that selectively binds to the MT1 and MT2 receptors in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), instead of binding to GABA receptors. Ramelteon does not show any appreciable binding to GABAA receptors, which are associated with anxiolytic, myorelaxant, and amnesic effects. Ramelteon can be used for insomnia, particularly delayed sleep onset. Ramelteon has not been shown to produce dependence and has shown no potential for abuse, and the withdrawal and rebound insomnia that is typical with GABA modulators is not present in ramelteon. Some clinicians also use ramelteon for the treatment of Delayed sleep phase syndrome. |
1. Treating insomnia (trouble falling asleep). It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.
2. Ramelteon is a melatonin agonist. It works by acting on the melatonin receptors in the brain, which helps you fall asleep.
