Use sleep aids judiciously and under the guidance of a medical professional from "summary" of Say Good Night to Insomnia by Gregg D. Jacobs

When it comes to using sleep aids, it is important to exercise caution and seek the guidance of a medical professional. While sleep aids can be helpful in managing insomnia, they also come with potential risks and side effects that need to be carefully considered. Taking sleep aids without proper guidance can lead to dependency and tolerance, where you may find yourself needing higher doses to achieve the same effect. This can not only be harmful to your health but also hinder your ability to address the root causes of your insomnia. Additionally, certain sleep aids can interact with other medications or medical conditions, which is why it is crucial to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new sleep regimen. They can help determine the most appropriate and safe treatment plan for your specific situation. Moreover, a medical professional can also provide valuable insight into alternative methods for improving your sleep, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I). This approach addresses the underlying issues contributing to your sleep difficulties and can be just as effective, if not more so, than relying on medication alone.
