Routine No 203 - Medication

Avoid medicine that disrupts or delays sleep.

Some commonly prescribed heart, blood pressure, or asthma medications, as well as some over the counter and herbal remedies for coughs, colds, or allergies, can disrupt sleep patterns.

WHY IT HELPS:
If you’re on any medication and you have trouble sleeping, talk to your doctor or pharmacist to see whether they can be taken at other times during the day or early in the evening. In the future, when your doctor prescribes medicine, you can proactively ask if any of those has a negative effect on sleep and if there’s an alternative.
