ramelteon and weight

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 other GABA modulators is not present in ramelteon.

An article published in 2006 stated that “The two newest sedative hypnotic medications, eszopiclone and ramelteon do not appear to offer additional benefit and are high cost alternatives to the older agents. Further studies with active comparators are necessary prior to identifying their ideal place in therapy”. (http://pharmacy.oregonstate.edu/drug_policy/pages/dur_board/newsletter/articles/volume8/DURV8I1.html). You might want to refer to an article on ramelteon in chronic insomnia.

If its an issue with sleep aides Rozerem is an FDA approved medication that works like melatonin to adjust the sleep cycle and is safe and non addictive and is actually more effective than melatonin

Specifically, the delayed sleep phase syndrome. He prescribed Ramelteon to help her fall asleep at night. So far, the sleeping pill seems to work but in a subtle way. If she does not prep herself for sleep, sleep will not come. It has gotten so bad that she cannot remember the last time she slept and felt rested. There is a bit more to it then just a sleeping problem. I am not sure if this is related to it but she has laps of time where she can't remember specifically what she did.

t know if they would want to get into adding the names from other countries like Canada and the UK, but we do get a lot of posters from these countries and many of the same meds have vastly different names. Just a thought.

I am aware that these are supposed to be used short term, they are not addictive but now 4 months on I am still taking them, my mood is much more settled but im not completley right yet, I have tried a few times to try and go to sleep but I am wide awake tossing and turning and I end up taking one in the middle of the night anyway. I have had the whole bath thing, no stimulents, relaxation techniques etc.. I just seem to have lost the ability to go to sleep.

Non-benzodiazepine sedative hypnotics are Zolpidem (Ambien, Ambien CR, generic), Zaleplon (Sonata), Eszopiclone (Lunesta), and Ramelteon (Rozerem) which is the newest type of sedative hypnotic but it is not technically a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic. Be sure to read the section in the middle since it contrasts the different meds. http://health.nytimes.com/health/guides/symptoms/sleeping-difficulty/medications.html Chamomile tea, warm milk and things like that never worked for me.

If you are wanting to loose weight rather than build more muslce I would drop down on the weight you are lifting for your strength training and do more repetitions that way you are still working your muscle but not bulking up so much. Cardio helps maintain your weight so I would recommend more strenth training than cardio but if you are worried about running building up your leg muscles you could do your cardio on an elliptical machine or a stationary bike. Good luck!

My baby weighs 4 pounds and I'm 28 weeks and the app says she should weigh 2.2 pounds. Is this correct or not?

My husband is a very big 66 year old man, but very overweight, and NOTHING he does makes him loose weight. He is diabetic as well. He consumes less food than I do a day, and I am not overweight. I believe this could be metabolism somehow, but, doctors have checked thyroid. ANY suggestions would be greatly appreciated. No one can seem to be able to help him.

In my teens and twenties I was anorexia and bulimiac. I was obsessed to no end to improve my looks and weight. I damaged myself ............and through research --- I found that because of my radical behavior I probably brought this disease on. I am now 42 and could be looking at cancer from a nodule and needing surgery. Was that weight loss so important now?? First diagnoised I was Hyperthyroid. I was losing weight and was at a proud weight of my 102 pounds at 5'6".

I was diagnosed with ms when I was 14 and since then my weight just fluctuates either I am too fat due to the meds or I am grossly under weight. At this point in my life I am grossly under. I am 32 years old and 95lbs and 5'2. Dose anyone have any suggestions.?

I have stopped taking it a about 3 weeks ago, maybe longer and noticed that I have a hard time gaining weight now.

I was diagnosed 2 weeks ago with Graves. My doctor strongly suggests RAI. I am very concerned about the potential weight gain afterwards since I am currently overweight. I haven't dropped any weight since experiencing symptoms (starting about 5 years ago) and from everything I've read that normally happens. How much weight is usually gained after going hypothyroid? How easy is it to get off and maintain?

About 3 years before I started tx my cholesterol was getting a little high and my weight and blood sugar. So I made a lifestyle change and dropped 40 lbs. My blood work dropped dramatically in the 1st 6 months. It was radical. My triglycerides went down 94 points! After feeling confident in my routine and healthier I ventured into treatment. 7 months later I've gained 8-10 pounds. I think it is from the lack of exercise. Figures I would gain weigh sigh..... My regular M.D.

Hello my name is Babbal I am new to the forum. Ok so here is my issue I weigh 230 lbs absolutley unintentional I cannot lose weight no matter what I consume only about a thousand calories a day not because i starve myself because frankly that is my capacity when a growing male my age needs about 2500. Next I have a very very slow digestive system I have GERD take prevacid 30mg twice a day..

I exercise daily, I eat very little and yet I cannot lose weight. Some days when I work out I get cold sweats and it feels like my dose is wearing out, then I take a break and calm down and everything is fine. Last time I was on methadone I put on 45 lbs and was completely inactive, I want to avoid those issues this time. Vitamins? Food diet? Does anything prevent the constipation and weight gain?
